Buddy reading with room 12

Room 7 were reading with room 12 people we learned interesting words

Room 12 taught us how to read like a senior

When the seniors came in we read our reading book to them.  When we went to their class they read us a long book.

Room 7 number knowledge

We had to say what we know about the number 14 and  we all did different ones of good ideas  and that"s Ms Riley favourite number and we had to know it like what is 14 is it a fraction and we liked the number 14 and we learnt the number 14.

This is my art work my name is Manearose and I did this art I was not allowed to go over the lines and I had 4 colours to use and I used purple, pink, gold and  green .

Fitness / Jump jam

We were dancing and singing and it was fun.  Everyday we dance and sing in the morning.  This is our jump jam so we can get fit.  Everyday in the morning we do exercise so we can be fit.  All of our classes come to fitness, then 3 students are selected to go to the front to show them what to do.  Then the copy the leaders.

science

We made hokey pokey for a science experiment.

The hokey pokey smelled great.  We learned that when we made it the hokey pokey went from a soild to a liquid to a solid again.  The hokey pokey tasted delicious.  The hokey pokey was crunchy and hard.  The hokey pokey was sticky.  The pictures show you the ingredients.  The hokey pokey had white powder.  At the end we cut the hokey pokey up and shared it. We put golden syrup in the hokey pokey.  We used spray to stop it sticking;  When it snapped it cracked and it looked like the colour of honey.

Sharks maths group

ma

Tane said "we were trying to figure out what 1/4 of 40 was".

Manearose said "Jairus figured it out" and Tyresse agreed.

Diego said he liked it because Jairus knew how much it was.

Sonny said "I liked the part where Jairus figured it out by himself".

Cognac said "some found it easy and some found it hard".

Kymani said "one thing I liked about it was that Jairus looked at the camera".

Manearose said Jairus was focusing.

Why do we have tests?

We test to show the teacher what we know, we are not allowed to look at other people's work.  When the teacher knows what we know, they can then focus on teaching us what we don't know so we can be better than before.

Python reading group/ Rescue workers

Up close 2 medals and one mission

This was an activity completed by Cobra, a reading group in room 7.  The book was Look at me up close.  The group had to complete two medals (two things they liked) and a mission (one thing that can be better) on the book they read.

My first medal is I like it because it gives us some clues.  It's got different designs in it.  My second medal  is she wrote heaps of important information in the book but it wasn't to long to read.   My mission  is it should of been long to find out more information about look up at me, it should of had lots of facts about me.
Here are some pictures I took up close
