Autumn

In maths at the moment we are learning all about time. So for writing this week, we thought we would write about the seasons. Before we started our writing this morning we went for a walk outside, we looked at the trees and the leaves on the ground and felt the cold wind.

Here are some of our stories about Autumn:

In Autumn I play in the leaves. I like Autumn.
Elsie

In Autumn I watch the leaves fall from the branches.
Gala

In Autumn the leaves are falling.
CJ

The leaves are falling down and down on the ground. I love Autumn.
Frances

Fishing with our Buddies

Yesterday our buddies came to our classroom to help us make our magnetic fish and fishing rods. Earlier in the week we had coloured our fish in beautiful colours, our buddies then helped us cut out our fish, attach the paper clips and make a fishing rod. We learned that the magnet at the end of the fishing rod is attracted to the metal in the paper clip and that's how the fishing rod catches the fish. We'd like to say a super, big thanks to our buddies for their help!

Junior Assembly

On Friday our class hosted Junior Assembly in Room 2. We were all very excited about it and practiced all Friday morning. We shared our days of the week caterpillars and some writing with our syndicate. Well done Room 2!

Switch on to Science!

Last week was National Science Week and we started our new Inquiry unit called Switch on to Science! At the moment we are learning all about magnets and have found out some interesting things like...magnets stick to metal, if you put a north and a north end of a magnet together they won't stick, magnets can stick together through paper, the table, the white board and our hands!
