Week 4 Happenings!

Wow! I can't believe week 4 is over already. This term is moving along very quickly. For cooking this week we made pizzas! We had to knead the dough, roll the dough and place on all the toppings. We all did a great job and the proof was in how great they tasted. We have also been exploring our iPad's during our literacy and numeracy lessons. We love them!

Term 3 has begun!

Welcome to the first post for term 3. I can't believe that we are over the half way mark already! This term the whole school is starting the day with Play is the Way games. These games are helping us to build our social skills through positive play experiences. Room 11 has enjoyed starting the day with some fun. This term will be learning about the Human Body. We have written down lots of questions that we would like find out the answers too. We will also be studying an Information Report during our Accelerated Literacy lessons.
To build on our social skill learning we have started a new program called 'What's the buzz?'. The class enjoyed making videos last week on appropriate ways to greet people, holding a conversation and then saying goodbye. Tomorrows lesson will be on appropriate ways to gain attention.
We have also had a successful excursion to the cinema this term. The Ladies of Variety invited us once again to see 'Cars 2'. I think it's pretty safe to say that everyone enjoyed the movie and the day out.
Enjoy the slideshow below!
