The Star Rocket Writers for this week were.......

A very big well done to Charleigh and Olivia who were the star Rocket Writers this week. Charleigh got the Star for Writing the most words - 29 of them and Olivia got the Star for making the most progress. She wrote 10 more words than last time. Well done girls - great job. The photo says it all - you were both very proud of yourselves.

Letters of the Week

Look at our fabulous letter table. Each week we cover 2 letters of the week and the students bring along an item or items beginning with that letter. This week it was Ff and Bb. We have had some great items. Can you sopt the fairy, flannel, flour, finger, forks, feijoa and fluff or the ball, book, banana, babies, bag? Well done to all the students that bring something along to share for the week. It also earns you a dojo point.

Mrs Scott brought along Marnie's balloon game to play too since it started with 'b'. Some of us liked playing the game and some of us weren't so keen. Here's a couple of photos of us playing.

Maths - Taller and Shorter

Today for maths we talked about the words 'shorter' and 'taller'. Here is a class photo of Room 5 lined up.

We were able to use the words 'taller' and 'shorter' in a sentence. Leon said - "Leon is taller than everyone in Room 5." Lucy said - "Lucy is shorter than everyone in Room 5." Deegan said - "Deegan is taller than Lucy." Charleigh said - "Rhys is taller than Charleigh." Olivia said - "Vinny is taller than Tom." Rhys said - "I am taller than Charleigh." Vinny said - "Vinny is shorter than Olivia." Tom said - "I am taller than Lucy."

That naughty wasp!!

Room 5 had an unexpected visitor in the classroom this afternoon, a wasp that thought Olivia looked so tasty and had a wee bite. Poor Olivia!! It was her first sting but she was so brave. We managed to take a photo of the bite mark on her arm but Olivia got the last laugh when she shows us what's on the shovel.

Naming our New Fish - Can you help us?

Guess what Room 5 got in the holidays.........

We got 2 new fish. We need to name them. Please suggest a name for our fish by leaving a comment. On Friday we are going to choose from the suggestions.

Thanks for your help.

Goal Setting

On the last day of the Term the little Minions in Room 5 evaluated and reflected on the goals they had set. Here we are with our reflections.

We have all set new goals that we want to work towards achieving in the next few weeks. Remember to view these on the classroom door. Go little Minions you can do this - yes, yes you can - each and every one of you!!
