Listening Walk

Room 2 went on a listening walk. Everyone had to listen very carefully to the sounds we could hear around us. We walked for a while and then stopped. Mrs Rai asked us to be very quiet and still. We then had to share what we could  hear with a buddy.

 

 
 

We went back to class and wrote down all the sounds that we had heard. The next day we worked with Mrs Paterson to come up interesting words to make our writing more exciting. Here are some samples of what we wrote.

I heard the leaves rustling in the wind. I heard the cars going errr! It was very loud. I heard children running fast. I heard the birds tweeting in the trees. I heard the wind going woo! The wind blew the doors open and shut.

Nerys

I could hear a quack, quack, quack sound. It was very loud.  I think it was a duck up in the sky.

Eloise

I could hear a noise. I think it was a duck. I could hear a helicopter flying in the sky. It was far away. I heard a truck going vroom! vroom! It was very loud.

Masi

I heard the wind going woo! It was a soft sound.

Josie

I heard the trees rustling.  I heard a duck quaking loudly. I heard a door banging shut. I heard a truck going vroom! I heard the wind blowing.

Surya

I heard a banging sound. It was loud and near me. I think it was a door closing. I could hear a tweeting sound. It was soft. I think it was a bird. I heard a quaking sound. It was very loud. I think it was a duck flying in the sky.
