Fun times at the gardens...

We had such a great time at the gardens and museum on Thursday. Here are a few photos at the playground.

We are authors and illustrators

We are currently writing a story for our Room 10 buddy. Have have looked at many different authors and illustrators. We really enjoyed listening to Dallas Clayton and how he got his ideas. Then we listened to him reading his book: An Awesome Book. Here it is.

Book week

Last week was book week. We had a great time reading with and interviewing our Room 10 buddies about what types of stories they like to read. We enjoyed SPACE JAM and dress up day and many of us enjoyed the Pyjama Day too. We also explored the story The Lorax - it was a great week!

Have you joined the Loom Band craze?

The Commonwealth Games are here!

Here is a great link to activities on Study Ladder - a simple way for the children to be involved!

DIGI-KIDS

This term 2 of the children each week will be helping take photos of what we have been doing in class.
This week it was Max and Poppy.
Lots of writing has been happening in Room 18 this week. Our focus for the term is narrative. We look forward to writing lots of interesting stories. 

Here's what they captured.
