Term 4 Week 2

Congratulations to Anton for receiving the learning certificate this week!

This week we have learnt about angles.  There are four angles; right angle, straight angle, acute angle and obtuse angle.  A right angle is 90 degrees, a straight angle is 180 degrees, an acute angle is less than 90 degrees and an obtuse angle is wider than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees.  We have also been learning about persuasive writing.  We learnt that you need to have 5 paragraphs including a conclusion and an introductions.  You must have at least three reasons.

Thanks

Term 4 Week 1

Congratulations to Amelia for receiving the Character Certificate this week

This term we are looking forward to Athletics and Natural Disasters.  Also we are doing ICT instead of Music and we are making our own blogs.  The Writing we are focusing on this term is Persuasive Writing.  We are going to try and persuade Mr Marwick to get the school a Flying Fox!  Mrs Scanlan is teaching us about a Growth mindset versus a Fixed Mindset.  For example, I give up (Fixed mindset) or this may take some time and effort (Growth).  In Art today we did Monoprinting.  Monoprinting means a print that only happens once.
