Newspaper Clothes

Room 4 has been learning about the 3 Rs - not the school ones but the 3 Recycling Rs!

 This afternoon we did an activity that RE-USED some newspaper. We had to make some clothes out of newspaper. Check out some of our great outfits!

Holiday Letters

This week we have been sharing our holiday news with each other. For writing, we wrote a letter to a friend about our holiday and then published it. Have a read of some of the awesome letters! The rest are on our Writing Wall in the classroom.

The Sun, Earth and Moon

In Room 4 yesterday we did an experiment to show how the Earth and Moon spin around. We used a hoop to show the Sun. The basketball was Earth which orbited on its axis to get night and day as well as orbited around the Sun over a year. The Moon orbited around Earth every month.

Xavier as the Sun, Robbie as the Moon and Kate as Earth.

Then we drew a diagram in our books of what we had learned. Here are some AMAZING diagrams!

A special congratulations to Scarlett and Kassia who earned themselves a GOLD certificate.

Wow! There were some amazing swimmers at the swimming sports on Friday! I was really proud of all the Room 4 racers who gave all their different races a go and tried their best.
