We have been busy in class creating work to present on the walls to make a colourful, exciting and useful classroom environment. Below are a few of the displays.

 

 

 

We have a new topic wall up and running. This display shows the staple foods that are eaten in a range of countries around the world. We used the internet to find information and working in groups we then went on to present the information. We were able to indentify that many countries eat similar staple foods. We also looked at the foods we ate at home and compared those eaten in other countries.

During Maths we use the Maths Wall to solve a problem that has been set by the teacher. Each week the problems change and we have to use our previous knowledge and new knowledge to help solve them.

We also have created a tool belt that we can use to remind us of the strategies that we have learnt. Each tool has a different strategy and when solving problems we can go to our tool belt to find a suitable strategy for that problem.

Garden to Table Week 2

Today room 35 have been doing Garden to Table.We made a lovely salad with edible flowers with yummy mint dressing.We also made a pastsa dish which had carrots and parsnips in it. Group three made a cob loaf bread which was very yummy, it was filled with cream cheese, chedder, silverbeat and herbs.

Mia enjoyed eating the flowers although they were a little bitter tasting.

Michael worked hard spreading the cheese cream onto the cob loaf so that it was even for cooking.

Ollie likes to cut parsley and corriander. He looks like a professional!!!

Everyone waiting for their tasty food at the tables.We got to share what we had eaten with eveyone.

Zoe helped cut a pumkin from the garden, it will be used this week in  Garden to Table.

Thanks to all the mums that came and helped :)
