I am learning to draw a portrait of myself.

I was learning to draw a portrait of myself.
I know how to do shading.
It was easy because we did it step by step.

Welcome Blog.

This year I am in Room 28 and my teacher is Miss Cunningham.

A Puppet Show

WALT create and perform a puppet show.

Room 10/11 had a great opportunity to create and perform a puppet show from scratch! They had to write the script, make the stage and props such as a butterfly, a cocoon, a caterpillar and different types of foods. They practised for a few weeks and developed their acting and understanding of stage performance. Take a look at Hadi's group’s performance. (Please click the title above the picture)

The very fat caterpillar 

Setting description: the colourful flowers are growing and it’s very sunny. The wind is blowing. The hill is so high and there are three trees. There is a beautiful pond next to a tree. 

Narrator: there was a garden with a little white, small egg that fell down from a leaf. Then it cracked and out came a little hungry caterpillar. 

Caterpillar: I’m so hungry. (caterpillar looks for food)

Narrator: on Monday it found one pear and ate it.

Narrator: on Tuesday it found two strawberries and ate both of them.

Narrator: on Wednesday it ate three salamies.

Narrator: on Thursday the caterpillar ate four watermelons. 

Narrator: on Friday it ate five lemons and on Saturday it ate six cotton candies. 

Narrator: the caterpillar felt so sick so it tried eating a leaf.

Narrator: the next day it turned into a cocoon and after two weeks it came out as a beautiful butterfly! The End.

Book Character Dress Up Day!

On Thursday 21 November, Room 10/11 had a fun day dressed up as their favourite book characters. There were princesses, witches, wizards, Hairy Maclary and many other characters from different books! It was great to see the love of reading and making a connection to those characters. Well done Room 10/11 for your amazing effort and costumes! 

Bonds to 20

WALT know bonds to 20

In maths, we have been learning to find the bonds to 20, looking for the sets of two numbers that make 20. It was tricky at the beginning to know the numbers straight away but it got easier as we used different materials like connecting cubes and counters to figure the problem out. 

We are learning to draw a sea lion

Room 10/11 have made the Sea Lion artwork for the Art Show that is taking place in Term 3 Week 9. We observed different features and postures of the sea lion and learned to draw it step by step to make our own sea lions. Then we made our background by blending different shades and tints of blue. We also made rocks by scrunching up some brown paper.
