Last Week

 Phew, where has the year gone? This is our last full week of the year. 

Our big buddies came to help us make origami book marks - Christmas Trees!



Congratulations to our Room 14 champions from Athletics day.

Scary Sharks!

 This week has been 'sh' week. Watch us make some very scary sharks. We learned all about their teeth and how they have a lot more than we do - and can keep make more if they lose any!



More fractions

 We have been using the shape tools in Seesaw to make halves and quarters. 

It is quite tricky to divide the shapes evenly and make all the pieces fair!

Fractions, fractions, fractions

We have been learning about whole, half and quarter of shapes. 

We have noticed that our sandwiches are cut into these fractions too. 

Here are some of the pages from our maths books. We have been doing lots of practice.

Lego Challenge Day

 We are working together, sharing creative ideas and rising to the challenges to complete the lego tasks.

Lego, lego everywhere!

Task 1: create a mosaic (on own) or a sculpture (on own or with a buddy)

Task 2: work with a buddy to make a car and see how far it can travel off the ramp

Task 3: work with a different buddy to make a marble run

Task 4: choose one of the lego sets and get creative - work on own or in a team




What an awesome day, great teamwork, great creations and plenty of trial and error!

Beebot Challenge

We made a plan for our Beebot challenge and some of us built our design with the big blocks.  Can we programme our robot to get through the big block track?


We used forward and backward, left and right turn commands to get our robots to the end of the track.
We had to input the commands into the beebot and then test the programme to see if we had made the robot go far enough and turn the right way. Sometimes we had to makes some changes to complete the challenge.
