Books that are just right for me!

Room 5 has been working hard at choosing a chapter book from the Library that is a good fit.  They came up with the success criteria for selecting a book 'that is just right for me' -

E.O.T.C.

Last week of Term 1 saw our Education Outside the Classroom.  We had great learning experiences, such as Dog Safety, art projects, making healthy snacks and our river trip.  We did a big rubbish clean up on our walk to the river and at the river, collecting big bags of rubbish!  We then collected some small river rocks and drift wood so we could make art from recycled objects to place around the school.  Old tyre's have been made into a pyramid to climb all over and they have been a big hit during lunchtime - 

Zany Zoo Treats

This term is flying by so I better get some photos up of Room 5's fantastic zoo sleepover!  We had an exciting night viewing the zoo in the dark.  The giraffe didn't appreciate us waking her up and the Lemurs gave us a fright because they suddenly barked at us out of the dark!  We were taken through the zoo's kitchen and saw how much food the zoo had to prepare, and we viewed the freezer from the inside!  We also got to make treats for the monkeys, pinecones stuffed with popcorn and raisins which we fed to them in the morning.

Vocaroo

We are learning how to use vocaroo!

Re-telling the Main Idea

Room5 have been working hard on making their own books based on the main events from 

The Lighthouse Keeper's Lunch.

They have retold the main event from each day and sequenced the story together to form their own book.  Everyone worked really hard to include interesting words and to draw wonderful pictures.

Their books are amazing!  Want to come and read them?
