New Toys

We have got some new toys at school to play with during wet lunch times.
This is what we think of our new toys.

Habits of mind: Communicating with Clarity and precision; Managing impulsivity; Creating, imagining, and innovating; Responding with wonderment and awe

Dog Handler

Today we had the police dog handlers come to school. They showed us what  the police dogs do. We found out that police dogs search for missing people, they track down people who have run away from the police. 

Statistics

Today we counted how many people were wearing socks. We found out that 9 people were wearing socks.
We also sorted out our  shoes. We found out that most people wear shoes with velcro on them.

Moth

On Monday some of Room 12 students found a moth on the wall outside the class room. We brought it inside and we looked at the differences between a moth and a butterfly. 

After we had looked at it we let it go.

Habits of Mind: Wonder and awe; Remaining Open To Continuous Learning

Hero Day

On Friday we had "Hero' dress up day. Some of us got dressed up. After play the school had a parade. 

Statistics

On Thursdays for Maths we are working with Room 14 and Mrs Calman and learning about statistics.
We are learning to sort, count  and compare. We sorted all the children in the class to see if we had more girls or boys in the class. We found out that we have more girls than boys. 

We were all given some coloured beans. We had to sort them and see which colour bean we had the most of.

We have also looked at how many letters in our names and sorted what                                                            was the most common letter used in our names.
