Super Scientist
Is a competition
from Yr 1—6, where all students give a 2—5 minute science based presentation.
This presentation needs to take the form of an information report of a science
concept or idea. We are looking for the students to be able to explain
the scientific nature of the report they choose to do to their audience in an
enthusiastic, detailed manner.
A letter will be going home soon to explain the topic that everyone in grade three will be producing their presentation on.
Dancing
Congratulations
to Room 11 who have displayed amazing dancing skills this term. Already we are
learning four dances, and the instructor has been very impressed with our
rhythm and behaviour. Well done, Room 11!
Numeracy
This term in
Numeracy, we are focusing Money, Chance and Data and Mental Calculation. We
have been learning different strategies for subtracting money, and so far we
are getting really good at it. Maybe next time you go shopping see if your
child can work out the change to be given!
Literacy – Persuasive Texts
Over the last
few weeks, we have been focusing on writing persuasive text. In Week 2, we
wrote our persuasive topic was ‘I am amazing’. I was really blown away by the
quality of the work produced and touched by the thought and feeling that went
into these writing pieces. We are going to type these up now and publish this
work as they are priceless.
