Experts for the day

Room 7 were able to recap on some prior learning on Wednesday. We went over and helped Room 5 with their new learning inquiry on volcanoes. First we looked through some books and explained our posters we made with them, then we did some experiments.

Our guest speaker

Room 7 was very lucky to have Andrew (Tatum's Dad) come in and talk to them about his job. We are learning about people belonging to groups and we wanted to find out about what group Andrew belongs to. He is a tennis coach at Burwood Tennis Club and he talked to us about what things are important if you are wanting to belong to a tennis club. Everyone in Room 7 wrote a question or two about what they wanted to ask Andrew, we then asked him the question and recorded what he said onto our clipboards.

Discovery

Over the last few weeks we have been learning about keeping our bodies healthy. This topic tied in really well with our swimming because we had to think about the food we put into our bodies which would help give us energy and build strong bones and muscles. For Discovery we made some healthy snacks these included hard boiled eggs, healthy chips, fruit skewers and popcporn!

Our new PAI learning

This week we had two PAI learning explorers. Hayley C bought in some information on beaches, she was very well prepared. It was interesting looking at all the different shells she brought in. Luke shared with us all the different hobbies he does it was cool learning about the different groups people can belong to. Luke also brought in his model plane it was amazing. Did you know flying model aeroplanes can be a hobby too?

Maths

Bradley at Tatum have been practicing recalling halves of doubles. Well done guys!

Swimming

Over weeks 3 and 4 Room 7 went swimming. Check out their confidence in the water.
