Inquiry Learning with Gingerbread Men!

Image
Room 3 have been learning about changes in food. On Thursday we put some dry ingredients and liquid together in a bowl and used a machine to change them into a mixture. We then rolled out this mixture and used a cutter to make the shape. Next we decorated and cooked our gingerbread men. They were absolutely delicious when we ate them!

A busy week!

Mr Chadwick talked to us about Matariki. We watched the children do weaving and string games. We also visited the worm farm and had fun in the boat of the senior garden area. We celebrated Green day by dressing up in lots of green clothes. Lucy and Maggie May completed level 29 of the Reading Rocket.

Science Fair

Our year 7 and 8 students invited us to see their wonderful Science Fair exhibits. We were amazed at all the experiments that they had done. Four of them bought their exhibits over to our classroom for us to have a closer look and to answer our questions.

All the Junior School classes joined us in room 3 for our Junior Assembly. Sam and Maggie May were the announcers and Joshua and Magnus introduced our class items. We sang an action song and played instruments. Cella read one of her fantastic stories to us. We showed a slide show of us acting out the Tale of Peter Rabbit.
