Swimming

In weeks 5 and 6 Room 13 went down to the Glen Innes pools for our swimming lessons. We learnt how to float on our backs and fronts like a starfish, how to kick across the pool - with a kickboard and without, and we learnt how to go under the water to find a toy. We had lots of fun and learnt so much. Now we are much more confident in the water.

Inspiration for Writing

Lately we have been switching things up a little in our classroom. We have been having our independent play time in the morning first up and have been learning how to take photos by ourselves of the things we have created. After that we have been writing about what we did.
Here are some of the photos we have taken showing our morning activities.

Drawing on Hyperstudio and the ipads

We have been learning how to use Hyperstudio. First we have been learning how to use the bucket to colour in a house Mrs Forbes drew for us. Then we have been learning how to draw our own. We have also been learning how to draw our own house in Explain Everything on the ipads.
