We are well into the middle of the term. Students in Room 17 continue to work hard and put in their best efforts.Te first week of the term started with a rip and a roar , with a rotation an looking into our inquiry unit. Room 17 did the digestive system, Room 16 did brain and nervous system, Room 18 covered exercise and heart, Room 19 worked on skeletal system.




Our Food for Thought is going extremely well. They looked at the effect of yeast when baking and the reason why bread rises. this was demonstrated with the yeast and balloon experiment.



We also made some popcorn to do a procedural writing for. The children thoroughly enjoyed these activities, especially as there was a bite to eat at the end.


Our trip to Pak n Save was a quite enjoyable. The nutritionist from Food for Thought ran the project with a couple of sessions in the class, talking to students about food values, labeling, content etc. We were presented with a $60 voucher at the end of the session which the children will use to work on as a Maths activity to calculate amount and  prepare for a healthy lunch for the class.


Room 17 is beginning to think of  a presentation for their assembly. This is in week 9 of this term- Friday 1st July.
