Jellyfish Day

 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. 

Scientist Friday

Invisible Ink

Materials

- Lemon Juice

- White paper

- Cue tip

- Light source (the bigger the better)

To do this experiment you don't need must, just the four things above. You dip the cue tip into the lemon juice and write your secret message onto the paper. You shine the light onto the paper and it will reveal your secret message.

The book we read

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. 

Some of the beautiful giraffe art the kids do.
