Year 1/2M

What's Happening in Room 5.......

During Term 3 we have been very busy in Room 5. Earlier in the term we looked at Man landing on the Moon. We read and wrote space stories and created space pictures.

Since then we have been looking at “Keeping Ourselves Healthy". This has included lots of reading, viewing, writing, drawing and constructing about and practising of the five important areas - Keeping Clean, Relaxation, Drinking Water, Exercise and Eating Healthy Food. This has included making porridge, vegetable soup and healthy sandwiches. We showed what we had learnt by producing a box pyramid, poster or mobile of the five food groups.

Now we are looking at “How Things Change". We are performing experiments to learn about different types of change, what causes the change, what the change looks like and can it be changed back. We made spaghetti pictures after we studied the way spaghetti changed after being cooked.

We have been working on having a “Smiley” classroom. This focuses on the types of behaviour and actions that make us all able to work better and be friendly and happy in Room 5.
