Dinosaur Maths.

We drew an enormous dinosaur and measured it using our ten and ones blocks. 

We made a baby dinosaur and measured it too.

We made sure we had no gaps or over laps.  We had to count carefully.

We all paint the dinosaur.

Learning about the Olympics

We were lucky today to have Jake's Dad talk to us about his experience of competing in the Los Angeles Olympics.  We are so lucky to have access to such amazing experiences within the Hampton Hill School community.  

He showed us his wresting togs.

and his Olympic participation medal.

SPCA Visit

The SPCA came and talked to us about how to care for our animals.

We listen to a story about how to look after our pets.

We found out that the SPCA helps to rescue animals.

We got to meet two very cute rabbits.

We had to be very gentle.

Music with Jo

We have been learning to listen to different notes.  Some are high and some are low.  Some are right in the middle.

We are starting to learn the musical notes.  We started with fruit music.
We had to break our fruit names into syllables to sing them. 

We talked about how we can use this music knowledge in reading and writing to help us to break words into syllables to help us read them and write them.
