Classroom Learning

This week at school we have enjoyed a “Maths Fiesta” in the library. Prep B joined in on the activities and had lots of fun completing the interesting Maths challenges. They wore their ‘sombreros’ and really got into the festive spirit. Thank you to Mrs Smalley for organising this great event for our school.

1/2B

This term for science we made toys.  Year Ones needed to make a musical toy while Year Twos made a toy that moves. 

The Year Twos had to make a push or pull toy and then change how we moved it (push to pull, harder/softer push or pull, change the surface we pushed/pulled it on).  We made cars from recycled materials.

In Design Technology, we have been making pinball machines out of cardboard and many other materials. We got to decorate and paint them. They also had to have a theme. We had to have safety instructions because we used a hot glue gun and sharp scissors.

It was lots of fun making them and we also helped each other which were very kind.

In our assessment we had to draw a design of our diagram of our pinball machines. It was really hard. It took 3 days to finish. We had a little play before we took it home. Then the teacher has to mark it on our report card. It had to look good and you had to been able to play it and it had to fit on your desk all of the class. 4B did a very good job.
