Art Rotation

Our topic for Term 2 is Art. As a part of this, Team 3 decided to have an art rotation where the students from each class chose which rotation they would like to be a part of. The rotation runs for the whole term and students will get an opportunity to trial 3 different art styles throughout the term. The rotation also gives the students an opportunity to interact with different students from the Team 3 syndicate.
Over the past 3 weeks our group has been doing print making and here is a picture of the printed collages we made. The students did a fantastic job and had some really great looking pieces of art to share today. Check out Room 9 and Room 11's blog's for more of what they got up to.

Buddy Reading

During Term 2, Room 8 has the opportunity to go and do some buddy reading with the children from Waterview Kindergarten. The students seem to love this just as much as the kindergarten children and it is great to see some relationships developing with our future Waterview Primary students.

'They especially love the free play time at the end of the session.'

Term 1 overview

Welcome back to the Room 8 blog. Sorry we were a little slack in Term 1 but we will try and make up for it in during Term 2. Here is a little update about how we finished off our first term together. Please keep checking back to see what excitement we get up to this term.

 

'We ended the term with a week of swimming at the Duck n' Dive pools. It was great to see the students confidence grow in the water as the week went on. Thank you to those parents who were able to come along and support us.' 

Topic:

As part of our topic for term 1, the students presented their homework projects about healthy lifestyles. We saw some wonderful displays of work and had the opportunity to share with the other classes in Team 3 and show our work. 

'Well done to all of Team 3 for their hard work making their displays.'
