PMP Fun!

Today we had PMP in the hall. We had lots of fun at the activities. We got to:

• go through tunnels
• glide on the rolling trolley
• throw bean bags and balls
• balance on beams 
• crawl along ladders
• roll basket balls

It was another amazing PMP session in the hall. 
Well done Room 5!

The Bubble Experiment

Today we did the Bubble Experiment!

We were learning about solids, liquids and gases.

We trapped air inside the bubbles and had lots of fun.

Science Week

This week we are carrying out investigations in class.  Each day we will be doing different experiments.

We are learning to make predictions and observe what happens in the experiment.

Today we did the Rainbow Water Experiment. 
We observed the water moving up and along the paper towels. We saw the paper towels slowly change colour from white to blue, red and yellow.

We are learning to think like a Scientist! 

We can make predictions of what we think might happen in an experiment and we can observe what happens and talk about what we see!

Buddy Class Science:

Today we had Buddy Class Science and we mixed corn flour, water and food colouring together to make gloop! We observed the liquid solution slowly turned into a solid.

FRACTIONS!

This week we have been learning about Fractions!  We have been learning about halves and quarters!
We can identify half of a shape and know that when you divide the shape it is divided equally into two halves.

We know that a half means two equal parts.  When we divide a whole into two equal parts, we call each part a half.


We watched some interesting videos on halves and quarters.  Fractions are fun!

PMP in the hall

Today Room 5 had PMP (Perceptual Motor Programme) in the hall.  PMP works to develop childrens physical motor skills that provide the foundations necessary for success in their early years.  This is a wonderful programme for juniors.  

We all had a fantastic time marching, balancing, jumping and throwing.
