Week 2 in Room 3.

We are learning to sit quietly at our tables after morning tea and lunch and read from our browsing boxes.We have been introduced to these books in our guided reading session and this is our opportunity to reread them.








 We have started our inquiry into Magnets. Here are some of the questions we thought we would try to find the answers to.

How do magnets pick up things?

What are magnets made of ?
Why are most magnets red ?
What are the North and South Poles?
Why don't some things get picked up by the magnets? 



 We look forward to finding the answers to our questions. Meanwhile we had some fun trying to find things in our classroom which were attracted to our magnets.















Can you guess the flavours of our beautiful ice creams we made with coloured paper. Collage requires patience but the results are worth it.

What a busy week in Room 3.!!

Last term Room 3 had Performing Arts lessons each week. They learnt lots of different dances. On Friday, they shared one of the dances that they had learnt at the Full School Assembly. The audience sang as they did the dance. We hope you enjoy it!

  Diwali. We have been working hard during our Inquiry time learning about festivals and celebrations.The Indian festival of Diwali is centred around Light so we have been busy using our collage skills to create beautiful candles. Collage requires Patience and Perseverance. Well worth all the hard work though!! .     We also painted our own beautiful D iva's-  small candles which are placed around peoples homes during Diwali.   Lights welcome the New Year and create a happy festive atmosphere. Come into Room 3 and see what you think!

We are enjoying working with Mrs Hooke doing Performing Arts on a Thursday morning-moving to music and learning to make interesting shapes with our bodies. We also enjoyed having some time on Friday to construct models using old boxes,egg cartons etc.When describing our models we tried to think of interesting words. We spoke clearly and listened to each other.Some of the models were constructed in teams and we all co-operated together.    It's so enjoyable to work together. Well done Room 3!
