Camp 2014

We have had a fun filled last couple of weeks.

Last Thursday and Friday we had an overnight camp out at Bridge Valley with children from Room 7, 9 and 16.  We had lots of fun participating in activities such watersliding, kyacking, caving and cooking damper.  Sally was proud of many of us who were nervous about staying overnight but managed to overcome our fears.  For a lot of us our favourite activities were kyacking and watersliding.

Today we also got creative entering items into the A&P Show this weekend.  Everyone entered an item into the decorated biscuit section and the fruit and vegetable novelty class.

Hi Room 5, Here are the links to the work we have been doing in class on communication.

Week 4!

We've had another great week in Room 5.  This week we had fun exploring some more ways that people communicate with others.  We learnt about Morse Code, using the Military Alphabet, and Semaphore Flags.


This term we have been doing dance.  We have a jungle theme going on.  This week Sally put us in groups of four and we had to think about the dance element of levels.

We have had Sam relieving us.  We had lots of fun creating these bright and colourful clowns.  Aren't we talented!!

Sign it!

We have been learning about all the different ways that people communicate with each other.  This week we have been learning more about sign language.  As part of our reading rotation we had to make a little movie using sign language.  Sally was blown away with what we came up.  Check out one of them below.  Watch out for them coming on our individual blogs soon.

We also had our second week of gymnastics.  We are really thankful to the parents who are supporting us with this.




Talented Room 5!




We've had another fun week in Room 5.  On Tuesday a lot of us performed at Stage One with the school choir as part of the Nelson Art's Festival.  Check out the video below.  (Sorry that it is sideways)





On Wednesday Cooper, Ella M and Ruby M were really brave and helped Sally lead a Tekkie Brekkie before school.  They taught teachers how to use the Lego Movie Maker App to make animations.  Way to go girls!!
