Poems

In Room 5 we are learning about poetry.   We all had to write a poem about an object.  We all wrote our poems on post cards and today the postal service are picking them up and they are going to another school in New Zealand and we will also be receiving poems as well.
These are my poems, The first poem is about a rock and the second poem is about a gem:

Animal Poster

A few days ago we made animal posters. We had to pick an animal and research that species. I chose the Giant Panda. It was really fun finding out interesting facts that I didn't know. The giant Panda is such a cute and interesting animal. The things we needed to find out was Their Diet, Habitat, Are they endangered, Features and Breeding.
This is my Poster:

Tabloid Sports

Today we did Tabloid Sports. Since I am a House Captain I had to do a event. My event was a obstacle course. I did my event on the turf and set up cones. They had to Hop to a cone and then switch legs and hop to the next cone. Once they got to the end they had to

 do 5 jumps and then 5 spins, then run all the way back. Tabloid Sports was really fun and I am glad i got to do an event.  It was my last ever Tabloid Sports.  

Shine Week

This week is shine week, we are dressed in orange 
because we are fundraising for family violence. 
 If you wear orange to school on shine day then 
you have to donate some money.  Mostly everyone
 was in orange.  The whole school went on to the 
field to take a picture of the whole school.

Shrove Tuesday

Today is Shrove Tuesday.  This Morning we burnt palms and now, in the afternoon we are making Pancakes as a class with Room 1.  All the Juniors took turns mixing the batter and now the teachers are cooking the pancakes.  They smell so delicious!  Everyone can't wait to eat some!  Right now at 2:20 the little kids are filling in a work sheet and the Seniors are doing a blog posts.  The Seniors help the Juniors with their work sheets.  Shrove Tuesday was really fun!

Growth Mindset quotes

If If Doesn’t

Challenge You,

It Won’t Change

You!

 I chose this quote because if you don't challenge

yourself then you won't be learning anything new 

and it won't change the way you think about things.

Lent

Today, in Religious Education we brainstormed
 words or quotes about lent.  We came up with 
lots of ideas and then we had to copy them all 
into our book.  We had to decorate our work 
neatly and have lots of colour because our R.E
 books need to have good presentation. On 
Tuesday we also learnt about Faith, Hope and
 love. Here is what my book looks like:
