Paper Shoes









At this week's Friday Challenge Miss H read a new home reader "Mum's Shoes" In the book Mum ends up making a shoe out of paper. So we decided we would try to also. Mrs Dijkstra got some advertising fliers given to her so we used those together with masking tape, pipe cleaners and some squares of coloured paper. It was a great problem solving activity. Some children used their school shoes as an outline to  get some shape and size. We made a wide variety of styles and shapes- from boots, to slip ons to toe peepers. Miss H and Mrs Dijkstra loved our creativity, imagination and problem solving. Wonderful self belief Room 24!

Spaghetti and Marshmallow Structures








 Our Friday challenge this week was to work with a buddy to make a cube and pyramid using marshmallows and spaghetti noodles. The idea was to create a stable structure. Next time we hope to have more marshmallows so that we can design and build taller and bigger structures whilst keeping them stable.

Anzac and Easter

For Easter we drew different patterns on a bunny outline. What amazing detail Molly!
For Anzac we constructed a poppy and glued it in the corner of our poem.
 We illustrated a paper bag to take home our baking in.




Mrs McElwee helped us measure out the ingredients in the morning. Here we are rolling and flattening our Anzac Biscuits. A big thank-you to Beth who took our cookies home to bake and package after discovering the oven no longer worked. They tasted delicious!!!

Nature Scavenger Hunt

                                    Here is the list of things to find and the cup to put them into
                                                        Finding three blades of grass
                                                            Finding a purple flower
                                                            Finding a glossy leaf
                                         About to find a white stone or a smooth grey stone
                                 The only pair to find a snail's shell and the snail was still inside.

On Friday after morning tea, in the beautiful weather, we had an outside Challenge. It was a Nature Scavenger Hunt. It was a fun, non academic activity. We had to find things like a sprinkle of sand and a small stick. It was a great thing to do on a gorgeous sunny day!

Self Portraits and Family Shields








Here we are having a photo shoot against the brick wall outside our room. It was a little tricky as the sun was shinning in our eyes. These are our self portraits with our holiday glasses on and our family shields where we illustrated - foods we like, members of our family, things we like to do as a family and lastly our favourite movie. Our classroom is going to look so colourful and wonderful when all of these are displayed in our room.

Find Someone Who......





As part of getting to know each other we were given a recording sheet. Our task was to roam around the room and ask questions like a reporter. If the person said yes, they wrote their name in a box on our grid. We tried to collect as many different names as we could. That way we were mixing it up and getting to know something about a lot of people in our class. One of the questions was - Does your family have a pet? Room 24 well done for getting to know each other better!!
