Room 2 Discovery

This morning Room 2 did Discovery just with our class. Our focus exploring materials as this is our topic theme for the term.


Making Oobleck and watching it change from a liquid to a solid.


 Making cards, bookmarks, pictures and posters using a range of materials .




Painting


Making paper boats and experimenting with the best design.



Here are some of our reflection comments.

If you put too much of one colour the paint made a strange colour. Karlie
Sometimes paper doesn't float. Baxter
The Oobleck kept changing when we mixed it. Jordyn.
Some boats don't float if they are too heavy.  Jack
It's easier to work with 3 people than with 4. Keanu


Room 2

Thanks to Baxter, his mum and grandparents for sharing their sunflower seeds with us. Room 2 have planted the seeds and are looking forward to watching them grow. Baxter also brought some of the seedlings he has been growing at home. This will be the focus of our writing this week as we are learning to write instructions.







Learning about social skills

Today we did a cooperation activity. We had to work together to make as many words as we can.








Yesterday we talked about how to help others when they are hurt.
