The superb second week!

What a great week we had in room 7. We enjoyed showing our visitors from ERO how we learn in our classroom.

We had a hilarious day on Thursday when we all chose a new name for the day. There were Indiana Jones', Spongebob square pants, Princesses, Einstein, lots of middles names and a strange teacher from a foreign country. We even had a visit from Constable Gumtree.

For writing, we are in the middle of some excellent narrative writing about a robot from the future. The children have been very imaginative about coming up with creative stories that include a hook and interesting words to entertain the reader. We look forward to sharing them on our e-portfolios soon.


Keep smiling and enjoy your long weekend with your families.

Wonderful Week 1!

We have had a fabulous start to our term in Room 7. We welcome Brooke to our class and look forward to having you part of our team. The weather this week has been amazing and it is a good time to remember the dangers of being in the sun too long. Please make sure you put sun block on before you come to school and wear a hat. There is also sun block available in the class to re-apply if necessary.

We started our Keeping Ourselves Safe topic this week and discussed what it means to be confident. We also talked about valuing ourselves and remembering that we all have strengths and to be proud of these.

In maths, we are learning about patterns in Algebra and being number detectives to try and work out the rule for the patterns we are making and repeating.

We are beginning a big project that has links to reading and writing. We will be researching, planning and making our own picture books. Our writing theme this term is Narratives, so we will be applying what we learn and producing a cool picture book to gift to our junior classes.

Our inspiration this week has come from thinking. We are learning how to change the way we think in order to achieve our goals. So this week we have all had our thinking cats on!


Enjoy your weekend everyone, keep smiling.
