R14's Assembly

Room 14 were working really hard to practice our two items for Week 9's assembly.
We learned a Samoan Song, Le Aute.
We also worked hard on our production song Drip Drop.

Here are some pictures of us working hard to learn the songs.

Thanks, from Room 14

Pyjama Day in Room 9 - The Marshmallow Challenge

Take 20 sticks of dry spaghetti, a metre of masking tape, a metre of string and one marshmallow.  The Challenge:  teams (of 4 or 5) have 18 minutes to use the material provided to construct a self supporting tower with the marshmallow on top.  

We had some great teamwork displayed and one team successful in constructing a structure that would support the marshmallow.  A great start to a fun day!  The team showing the best team work and the team with the standing structure each got a couple of (untouched!) marshmallows to eat & a round of applause.
















Book Creator

The Peppa Pig Reading Group in Room 8, have been learning to use 'Book Creator' to record their reading to help with their fluency. They have been learning to group letter-sounds to work out words they don't know as good readers.
