We have a marble jar in Room1 for "good talking" - asking thoughtful questions, sharing good ideas and speaking up clearly at news are good examples. We decide as a class what we would like to do as a treat each time the jar is full! Our jar was full this week so today we made our treat- dinosaur cakes! We followed the plan in a reading book. Here they are. YUM!
At present we are creating multimedia artwork using a variety of different materials. Here are our illustrations for the story The Princess and the Pea. We recycled old coloured waste paper from the photocopy room and cut it into strips to make 10 mattresses for the bed and glued on some dried peas. We think our recycled collage looks amazing!
This week in the STEM room we explored electrical circuits. Our challenge was to connect a battery, wires and a bulb to turn a light on. Then we added sirens and motors!
Eirinn could connect her circuit to turn a light on!
Zack chose a buzzer for his extra for experts challenge!
