Practical learning

Last term for practical learning we did sewing to make head phone bags. I did a blue material and a black one with dots on it. 

I chose these patterns because I wanted to and black and blue are my favourite colours.

The part I found the hardest was trying not to stitch the string to the bag.

The part I liked the most was sowing on my initials 

I am really proud of my headphone bag. 

WIS visit

 On Tuesday last week my class, room 3 and room 1/2 went to WIS.  It was really fun but each group could only do 3 activities. We made name tags out of wood and they layered our names on the wood.

Fact or Fiction

Here are my three paragraphs describing me holiday experience. Can you guess which are fact or fiction?

Word art - water

My class made word clouds and the words had to be based on water. These words are other words for water, where water comes from and the sounds the water makes.

Water Cycle

In Room 15 we did a science experiment. We had to get a zip lock bag of  Miss Candish and draw with a sharpie on the bag, we had to draw a sun, the sea and clouds. So when everyone did that we had to full up the bag with water until it was the same height as the sea that we drew. After we finished that we got blue food coloring and  put 2 drops in. Then we waited for a couple hours and then the whole class checked, the water evaporated and turned back into a water droplets and rained back into the rest of the water. 

Evaporation- evaporation is when the sun heats up the water and the water turns into a gas
Condensation- condensation is when the gas goes up and forms a cloud.
Precipitation- precipitation is when the cloud gets to heavy and starts to rain.
Collection- collection is when it rains and falls back into the water.

Hockey

Last term every Friday we did Hockey. The first time I did it we had to put the hockey stick up to the ball and dribble it around a cone. The 2nd thing we did, we hit the ball to each other and every time our buddy's hit it to us we had to stop the ball and hit it back.  It has been fun learning new skills.

Swimming

In swimming we have been learning how  to skull and free style and all that other stuff. I always like swimming on hot days.
