Boy these people are growing fast... I hope you all had fantastic days!!

A real bunch of 'BRIGHT SPARKS"

Today was a real 'electric' day. We saw a lot of higher order thinking. Light bulbs were turning on all over the place....literally.

Today the team and I explored the world of Science and Technology. In particular, we experimented with light bulbs, wires and batteries. Many of the groups found this to be challenging yet exciting.

Thankfully, no harm came to anyone but most children were...shocked....at how easy and fun the science experiment was.

From my (the teacher) perspective, it was awesome to see everyone 'switched on'...to learning.

Have a great week everyone.

Check out the cool pics above of todays learning.

Who said learning was boring?

Yesterday was a lovely day and GROUP 5 for guided reading took their lesson outside.

Their task was to read a journal story and then reinact it using a digital camera.

As you can see in the picture, they obviously had some fun.
