Planting Swan Plant Seeds






We are going to be writing an information report about monarch butterflies so we started by planting some seeds. Hopefully we will grow some plants that attract butterflies later in the year.

Writing in the School Yard






We went outside to write using our senses. What could we smell, hear, see, feel and taste?

Fantastic Fossils!!

Last term we went to Jimmy Lee Creek. Here are the Fossils!! A fossil is a thing that lived a long long long time ago!
We found them at fossil hill which was the way down from
the hill. There was only fossils from the sea.
That must mean it was water around there!!!!

The Creative Day


When Mrs Shepard came to Room six we made some bird masks.We had to go on kid pix and make our own feathers. We painted our masks bright colours. We made big feathers and small feathers. We put vivid around the eyes of the bird masks to make it bold. We got some elastic and stuck it on to the bird masks. Then it was done. We were really pleased with them.

Fish and Thunder Zoom Around



In Room 6 we have two gold fish. They are called Fish and Thunder. The biggest is Fish and the smallest is Thunder. Thunder zooms around a LOT of times and beats Fish . Fish is orange and Thunder is orange with black spots. We used to have another fish but it died so Miss Fitchett got a new one. When Miss fitchett went to the pet store she wanted a kitten. They have red and purple stones in there tank. Some people have feeding duty. THE END.

Best Friends Together.

In the holiday Alyssa came to my house . We went for a walk with nana and spud. Alyssa went on her bike and went down the bike track and fell off her bike into a muddy puddle. Then Alyssa biked home and we put her In the sink to wash her off. Then we went to the bumper boats. When we got to the bumper boats we were so EXCITED we were jumping up and down. Then we got on the boats and took off. I bumped Into Alyssa. She got soaked! Then it was time to go. We had so much FUN.

We are thinking about things that start with sp this week. So far in the playground we have found something that spins and a painting of a spade.
What else starts with sp?
