Fun with Comic Life

On Monday Room 6 was on the computers and we were making weaving posters. We used Comic Life to make the posters. We included pictures and information about what we did. You can look at our posters on the window of Room 6.

Buddy Reading in the Library

On Thursday we went to the library to buddy read. We like buddy reading because we get to read together. We share the reading and then talk about the book. We like buddy reading.

Music

At Birchwood School we have been learning about music with Mrs Saville. We have been learning about the beat. Yesterday we played a trombone. You needed lots of air to make the noise. It has been fun at music!

Exploring the Playground

At lunchtime India and Teona have been taking photos of people in the playground for Room 6's blog. Here are some pretty cool photos of some of Room 6 kids.

Congratulations Sophie!

Sophie wrote an essay about her experience during the ANZAC weekend at Founders. She won an award for her efforts and we are VERY proud of her.

The War in the Windmill

I arrived at Founders Park and went through the Windmill Time Machine back to 1939. I was 6 and when me and my family got there the Air raid sirens went off, we ran for shelter. When we got to the Anderson air raid shelter we met the neighbors and we snuggled in our beds warm and tight. We weren’t like the other neighbors who had a Morrison shelter under their table. As soon as the air raid was over we heard jeeps coming towards us and knew there was going to be a war and got our gas- masks on. Some people got hit by bullets and nurses carried them to the ambulance on stretchers. The nurses had blood down their aprons from helping the wounded soldiers .The big loud noises were really scary. I peeked out from behind my curtain and could see the Germans lining up the Americans soldiers and Marching them into the p. o. w. camp. Mum called me down for lunch it was carrot fudge, cabbage soup and raspberry sago .Yuck! Finally it was time to go back through the windmill time machine, back to 2010. I am still 6 and very pleased that I live in 2010 and not in 1939.


Well done Sophie!

Liam's Rabbits Visit

Liam's rabbits came to visit our classroom a couple of weeks ago. Their names are Zac and Coco. We put paper down so they wouldn't have an accident on our carpet. When they run their ears flop up. It was fun having them to visit because they are so cute. Thanks to Liam's mum for bringing them in.

Digging for Potatoes

In Room 6 we have been growing potatoes. We have been waiting a long time for them to sprout. On Wednesday we harvested our potatoes. There were a lot of potatoes in the buckets. It was a lot of fun!
