Science Experiments

This week we carried out a few science experiments. These are the ones we did in our class.
We experimented with Static Electricity. A big thank-you to Mrs Cammell for lending us the PVC pipes. We also looked at Optical Illusions, viewing some on line and then seeing if we could get the fish in the bowl and the bird in the cage. Lastly we made Sherbet so we could see another chemical reaction. We discussed what we see, think, and wonder. Lastly we commented on the taste and viewed on line how sherbet works. Science was fun.

2018 Math's Week

Room 24 loved Math's Week. Each day we went onto the website and played Daily Dollar and Math's Millionaire. We were very close at guessing how many lollies there were in Mrs Madden's jars.

Below we are playing Dots and Boxes - a fun game which challenged us to think about strategy. 

Mrs Dijkstra read us the picture book "Each Orange has 8 Slices" Each page posed a mathematical problem which we tried to solve. We talked about what strategy we might use. 

Room 24 Art display

Here are some examples of our art work that was displayed in the hall for this year's Art exhibition

A big thank-you to Mrs Michael's for helping with the butterflies and mounting and  to Mrs Zhu and Renee for helping with the printing and to Mrs Bannister for supplying and painting the boxes and for supplying the card. Thank-you to Mrs Varga for mounting our Colour Robber Art. 

A great team effort that helped show case our wonderful Art work.

Pirate Hats with our Buddies

Room 24 enjoyed another paper folding activity that was made into a Pirate Hat finished off with a skull and crossbones. Great team work Room 24 and Room19!

Family Shields

We made a shield. We drew pictures of our family and of food we like to eat and of things we like to play and of things our family like to do together. Our shields told a lot about us and helped us get to know each other better.

Mrs Dijkstra loved the detail in our drawings and how colourful they looked. Mr Dijkstra stapled them up high around our room because he is nice and tall.
