Room 4 Class Blog

We had a couple of different Moon projects taking place in Room 4 this term. They showed great team work and focus. Well done teaching the class the different Moon phases. Now we can watch out for them in the night sky during the month: new moon, waxing crescent, first quarter, waxing gibbous, full moon, waning gibbous, last quarter, and waning crescent.

The Star Inquiry group were amazed to learn about our star the sun and the many other stars out there in our Milky Way galaxy. Our class loved learning about different constellations that you can see at night in the Southern Hemisphere, such as The Southern Cross, Scorpius or Maui's Hook, Matariki, and Orion. Thanks for sharing your learning.

The crew of the Exploration Inquiry group wanted to explore space. They decided to make a Mars Rover. They tested it in different terrains and were very happy when the wheels rolled.

Here are photos of the 3D Solar System Inquiry groups working together to create their 3D solar systems. They wrote their own project instructions, carried them out, and presented their project in front of the class. 

Room 4 are looking very confident demonstrating all that they've learned this term in Gymnastics. They loved their lessons with gym coach Stephen who encourage them to challenge themselves each week. Everyone had different strengths and favourite activities, thanks Stephen for providing a great programme.

Sisilia graduated from Reading Recovery. Well done with all your hard work this term. Mrs Salmon and I are very proud of you!  Keira wrote an awesome tribute to Hiwi the Kiwi and won herself a fishing rod. She is hoping her grandma will take her fishing these holidays.
