We were making connections

We have been thinking about how we care for the earth and what our responsibility is, so we talked about why we collect food scraps to put into our compost bin. Here are our thoughts about it. 

A Bad Case of the Stripes

We read the story of "A Bad Case of the Stripes" written by David Shannon.

We also watched this video clip:

Listening to the story more than once helped us to retell the story in our own words. 

Kayla included all the key ideas and visited Mrs Schumacher to share her writing. Here she is with her Principals Award.

Kayla said: "I think it is my best writing ever."

More published stories will be added as they are completed.

We are learning to find information

We are learning to find specific information so we used this video clip to practise finding key ideas. 

We used bullet points to show the new facts. 

Describing water

We are learning about water and why it is essential for life. This activity we were learning about new words to describe water. Look at our lovely raindrops decorated with our words.
