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!

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!

Rugby Superstars!

This morning I went and watched the first week of rugby. I saw lots of Room 4 involved - Xavier, Robbie, Jack, Ben, George, Regan, Royden, Angus and Ella. I was really impressed with the positive attitude of all the teams and the number of tries scored. I bet you will all have a great season!

So ... Did you all enjoy your first game?
