Life Education

At the beginning of last week we noticed that a strange trailer had appeared on the back field at school. On Tuesday we were a bit nervous, but very excited, when it was time to discover what was inside. We made some new friends when we met Helen and Harrold the giraffe from the Life Education team. They helped us to learn where our heart, lungs and muscles are..........


........and how to keep them healthy and happy by doing regular, fun exercise with our friends.

Well done to everyone who put this new knowledge into practice by walking, scooting, cycling or even running to school on Wednesday. Don't forget there are still 2 more Walk To School Wednesdays left before the end of term.

This week our tricky words are 'so' and 'oh' and the sounds are 'f' and 'b'. In maths we are continuing our numeracy focus in our maths groups. We will also be sharing some of the exciting new maths activities that Tracy learned about at the IWB conference last week. In our inquiry topic we are practicing using good questions to find out about the people who help us in school. On Friday some friends from Rutherford Street Kindy will be visiting us and we will be helping them to draw pictures of the Rainbow Fish.

Reminders
Monday: Library books due back, no library books will be issued in the last week of term

Wednesday: Walk to School

Friday: Rutherford Street Kindy visiting us.

Thursday 9th April: Last day of Term 1

Monday 27th April: Start of Term 2

If you have a 6 week feedback interview bring a pen drive along with you.

    This is the first time I've checked out Rm 11's blog! It's very very interesting to see what you've all been up to, I had been wondering what had been going on in that giraffe's bus. I hope the rainbow fish will be on display in the room soon! Annabel (Lucia's mum). Good one, Tracey!
