On Wednesday the 9th November, Sherly Stivens came to visit us, she talked lots about different types of compost and how we can use this to help us grow nice and healthy plants. She also talked about why it is so important to recycle and keep our earth healthy! We learnt heaps! Thank you Sheryl! :)
PMP stands for perceptual motor programme, every Friday Room 6 takes a wee trip to the hall and we play lots of fun games, these games help us listen to instructions better and help us with things like kicking, jumping and moving.
Check out these photos below, these show us using colourful ribbons that help us to control our arm movements
On October the 21st in our school assembly Charlotte received student of the week, she is recognised for being a wonderful friend to everyone in Room 6, she always puts others before herself and she consistently tries her best in everything that she does, Well done Charlotte! We are pleased and proud to have you at Hampstead School!
This week Room 6 was very lucky, we were able to visit Harold, he taught us all about how we breath and why it's so important to look after our environment! We had so much learning about breathing and all the things in our body that help us to breath!
Check out some of these photos of our visit to Harold's Classroom! :)
On Friday 16th September Room 6 performed our assembly in front of the entire school! We performed a play called Maui slowed the Sun, we showed of some of our fantastic art work, and finally we shared some of our favourite photos from the year whilst we sang the song Easy Love!
We were all a bit nervous but felt very proud after we had done it!
We hope that you enjoyed our assembly as much as we enjoyed performing it!
Check out these 2 videos below!
This is the play we performed called Maui slowed the sun! To make the sun we painted the suns face and we collaged the suns rays and then sprinkled some glitter on top!
We practised heaps to make sure that we learnt all of the words and actions to our song!
On Thursday 15th September all of the year 2's from Hampstead school went to "have a go day" there were lots of different activities there, we were split up into 3 groups and played some fun sports such as T-ball, Netball, Golf and soccer, there were also lots of other schools there!
We had such an exciting day, we were all very tired when we got back to school though!
In Room 6 we have been expanding our knowledge on how to use the computers, today we learnt how to make a Powerpoint and how to add pictures into our Powerpoint.
On Tuesday 23rd August Emily competed in the Hampstead School speech competition, she performed a poem called 'Dinosaur Boogie', standing up in front of lots of people is very scary but Emily did a fantastic job! Well done to all the other speech competitors who also did an amazing job!
Room 6 children have raided their piggy banks and we have made $25.00 for St Johns! We talked lots about why St Johns is so important and what an amazing job they do for our community!
For drama this term we acted out one of our favorite books, the Gruffalo!! It was a bit scary at first when we had to stand in front of our class but we did awesome!
Room 6 has been learning all about volcanoes! The question that we wanted to answer was "Why do volcanoes erupt?" to help us learn about tectonic plates we pretended that whipped cream was magma and that biscuits were the tectonic plates!
When we moved the biscuits around we could see magma under the plates and then when we crashed the biscuits together we saw how volcanoes are formed!
It was REALLY cool! We even got to eat them after!
Crispy, crunchy, rattles as we walked around the three tall trees, then woosh! The first leaves are thrown! For writing we have been trying to think of cool things to write about, this helps us write more interesting stories because we can think of heaps more adjectives and it helps us remember because we have lots of fun! Room 6 took a trip across the field and we had an awesome leaf fight - they went all through our hair and all over our clothes, but it was really fun! The next time you are in Room 6 come and check out our awesome writing about our crunchy leaf fight!
Have a look at some of the photos that we snapped!
