Class Trip
We had a fantastic 4km walk along the ‘Manawatu Riverside Pathway’.
We really enjoyed walking along the riverside and through the bush ending up at
the ‘Esplanade’. After a well-deserved morning tea we played in the awesome
playground. Our next activity was a competitive quiz through the bird aviary
and rose garden. We had such a fun day! Thank you so much to the parents who
came with us, we couldn’t have gone without you!

Today in science we mixed baking soda and vinegar in a
bottle. We pressed a cork in the top and watched as it shot out. This happened because
the two ingredients, an acid and a carbonate, mixed together to form carbon
dioxide gas. The gas had to escape, causing the cork to go flying! It was an awesome
experiment!

We have finished our Bath Salts! We have had lots of fun
going through the technology process of designing and making a product. We have
enjoyed testing different recipes, choosing the scents, (lavender, vanilla or sandalwood) and
designing the jars for the salts to go in. Each of us will be giving our bath
salts to our clients to enjoy!

PRINTS
We have had lots of fun making prints of spring flowers.
First, we cut a flower out of cardboard. After that, we made
a design on our flower, making sure we had three layers. We left our templates
overnight so the glue set. The next day we rolled the ink on to the templates
and pressed hard. We carefully removed the paper to reveal our awesome prints!

Every day we have a ‘Thinking Challenge’. Today we used the
Commonality Key (looking at
two very different things and thinking about what they could have in common).
We thought about what Scissors
and Books have in common:
·
You can buy them
·
Both can cut you (paper cut)
·
Straight
·
Strong
·
Can be similar colours
·
Both are in our classroom
·
Both open
·
Have pointy parts

On Wednesday we saw an AWESOME show by the Kahurangi Dance Theatre. This group travels around New Zealand (and the world!) sharing Maori taonga (treasures) through waiata and dance. They were very talented and we loved the show. Our favourite part was when Cody, Reuben and Mr Ricketts had to get on stage, be a Maori warrior and show their taiaha technique! It was a fantastic show!

Garden
Oh no!! We went to go and water and weed our garden and we noticed something had got in and was eating our plants! We decided to put up a net to keep it out!

This term we are learning about our environment. We are
asking the big question of “How can we help our Environment?” After watching a
short video clip of ‘The Great Garbage Patch’ we felt mad, sad and angry that
there is so much rubbish in the ocean, more than on land! We made Tellagami’s
on the Ipad’s to express ourselves. Here are a few!
