Room 7 had two special guests today, Nugget and Waffles. Room 7 and Blue Bubbles super Teacher Aid Mrs Megan brought in her two pet guinea pigs Nugget and Waffles and we loved spending time with them. They were very snuggly and scared but they loved eating all the vegetables we fed them, especially the celery.
Today we had a wonderful adventure over to Dunkirk park with our teddies. We slapped on sunblock, slipped on our hat and took our teddies on an adventure. Miss Pryde read us a book then we got to introduce our teddy bears and talk about them a little bit. Afterwards we had lunch then we got to play. It was such a fun day out with our teddies. When we got back we got to eat our jelly from yesterday. It was a super fun day.
What is your favourite teddy bears name and where did you get it from?
Today has been a big day. We started off with phonics, we did the 'sh' digraph. Some of us did word finds (it was a hard word find) and others cut out letters to make words, some super speedy learners were able to do both. After morning tea we made jelly which wobbles like jellyfish. We put it into the fridge to cool, we are hoping it will be set before we go home. Next we read a fun book about Jellyfish, it was all about being helpful. When the book was finished we got to do some jellyfish art using water colours. It was super fun and pretty easy too. While the jellyfish art was drying we read a jellyfish poem and read it to three of our friends.
After lunch we got to go for a walk to the eels at Johnson reserve. We had to do zombie arms and put sunblock all over us because it was so HOT! We wore our sun hats too. The water was a bit yucky today so it was hard to see the eels but we will go back later this week and hopefully they will all be there. When we got back to school we were SO HOT so we all had a cup of ice cold water and read a book in the shade. It was a cool day.
It was a beautiful afternoon so we got outside to have some fun races. We split into two teams the blue team and the red team. You have to walk with the egg on your spoon to the cone. When you get to the cone you throw four bags into the hula hoop. If you miss you have to pick it up and try again. When you get them all in you pick up your spoon and egg and run back to tag the next person in line.
Today we read all about sunflowers and even read a poem. Afterwards we made some beautiful sunflower art. Below is the step by step guide of how to make them.
This book is about a giraffe going to the zoo because he works at the zoo. A lot of different animals were going to the zoo but they were late because they didn't have a bike. The giraffe was on time to work because he rode his bike.
