Room 2's Weather Forecaster and Teacher for Reading

Eloise did an amazing job of doing our calendar every day. Lewis was our teacher for Reading. He made sure that we were all reading together during our Shared Reading. The book was called The Monsters' Party. He asked us 5W and 1H questions.

We enjoy doing our Developmental sessions. This time it was our turn to stay in Room 2 to do Role Plays.  We are focusing on the Key Competency Managing Self. We are learning to be active listeners. Here are some of the activities that we do.

Essential Swimming Skills

 

 

 

 

We have been learning  important swimming skills this term. We have learnt how to enter the pool safely, how to breath correctly, how to float and then how to come back to a standing position how to glide across the pool. To practise the correct breathing technique, we have been using a ping pong ball to blow across the pool. We must make sure that our chin is resting on the water surface and we are blowing out through our mouths. We have even been picking up rings from the bottom of the pool.

Learning to float in our cool pool.

We are learning how to float on our fronts. Some of us use a floating device to help us.

Dancing on Mondays with Marguerite

We are lucky to have Marguerite who comes in every Monday to teach the Juniors the different elements of dance. We always look forward to these sessions as we  learn new groovy moves.

Welcome to Term 1 2017

We have had a really busy start to the year. We have been working really hard to do lots of reading, writing and art to fill up the empty walls in our classroom. We have been learning about why it is important to have classroom rules, how to be a good friend and a good listener. Have a look at some of our wall displays.
