Wow! More Special Learning in Room 16

Our Special Places

We are learning how to create different patterns. We had to make our own patterns up using waves, circles and lines.







Our Roof tops

We were learning to make straight lines with a ruler. We drew a picture using a ruler and a pencil. We had to fold the piece of paper into a square and then we had to draw the roof tops in the four squares.









Our Friends

We wrote about our friends. We had to write what they looked like, what they liked to do and what we liked to do with them.









Our Goals

We had to write some goals to help us improve our learning. For example my goal is to make new friends in Room 16. I can achieve this by asking if they want to play with me.

Our Special Places

We have begun researching about the: Mission Winery, Taradale Clock Tower, Dolbel Reserve, Sugar Loaf and Taradale Primary School as part of our learning about Our Places.

Our Swimming Carnival

Wow! Last Wednesday we had a swimming carnival. It was fun because we had lots of races and cheered loudly. The swimming carnival was held because it is the end of our swimming programme.

Self Portraits and Swimming Carnival

Self Portraits

We drew some self portraits of ourselves as part of our You, Me, We learning. We learnt how to draw our eyes and to draw a square and then an oval inside for our face. To help us draw ourselves we asked other children what we looked like. Some examples have been added to our blog.

Swimming Carnival

On Wednesday 18 March Team 2 are having a swimmng carnival. We will be having swimming races like freestyle and backstroke. Also we have class relays. Some more information and photos will be added latter.

Our Learning

This year we have been learning about statistics. We decided on some questions, collected data using tally charts and then we graphed this data using a bar graph. We have included some pictures of this.

We have also been learning about descriptive writing. We have looked at lots of good descriptive writing. We have also discussed adjectives, fullstops, capital letters and personal voice.

All our pictures were taken by Grace, Toni and Adam
