P.E - Large Ball Skills

WALT:  Develop handling and control skills of a large ball using our hands with a partner and in small groups.

Perform rolling an object with control over distances.

Roll different objects with accuracy.

Technology

WALT: Follow the technological design process to create a boat.

We used what we had learned in science about floating and sinking to ensure that it didn't sink. We looked carefully at the materials we used, as we wanted the materials to be light and waterproof so that they wouldn’t soak up water.

We also learned through testing, that it was important that our boat was balanced so that it stayed upright and didn’t flip over.

Te Reo Māori

WALT: Understand and say our mihi / pepeha including our name, the names of our parents and our school in Te Reo Māori.

Writing

Euan is working on re-reading his work as he writes so he knows what comes next and knows it makes sense.  His next step is to add detail to his writing by thinking about - who, what, why, when and where.

Science

Floating and Sinking

We Are Learning To:

Make a prediction and test our predictions.

Euan chose an object from the classroom.

He then ...

- Asked a question; Will it sink or float?

- Made a hypothesis stating what he thought would happen

- Tested his hypothesis by placing the object in the water

- Observed what happened and reflected on the hypothesis

Reading

Euan's reading group are learning to check the words look right and sound right.
