Annie

Today we were treated to a very special event at Shelly Park School. All the Year 5 classes and two Year 6 classes attended the production of Annie put on by the students at Shelly Park. It was excellent!!

Kakapo Assembly

Today was our team's turn to host the school assembly. Our theme was the Rugby World Cup. Room 3 had two contributions. One was a rousing game of rugby trivia using Kahoot in which 8 teachers came up front to give it their best shot!  Congratulations to Mrs Stansfield, Miss Hill and Miss Ginders for placing first, second and third respectively.  Here is the link to the Kahoot if you want to give it a go!  >>link<<
Our second contribution was reading the book. Grandma Joins the All Blacks.  Well done to our class members who presented today.

Oscar's speech

Today Oscar shared his Mandarin speech with our class and other Mandarin speaking students at our school.  He did a fantastic job and it was great for us to have a small experience of what it's like every day for Oscar and Blake as they spend the day in our classroom not understanding what we are saying. 

Shapes

We are starting our new strand in Maths learning about shapes. Today we sorted a variety of shapes and gave our reasons for sorting them into the groups we did. 

Clay Day

Today was our clay day!!  

Here we are creating. 

Carnival prep

We have finished making our contribution for the school carnival. We've used glue guns (even suffering from a couple of drops of hot glue on the skin - ouch!); we've painted and painted and painted; and then we added bling to our wands. They're looking amazing and we think they will sell out super fast at the carnival!!

Maths and RWC

In maths we used our skills at making enlargements to create a Rugby World Cup display for our classroom.

Transposing from a small grid to a larger one is harder than you'd think!!
