Turtles

In Room 13 five of us have been learning how to use the app 'I Can Animate' - thanks Miss Thompson and some of the Room 1 students for teaching us how to use it.  We looked at recreating the story 'The Smallest Turtle' by Lynley Dodd.  Here is our version of the book using 'I can Animate'.

Out and About in the Community!

In the week just gone we have had a busy week with our Hockey Tournament and then having our second visit to Johnsonville Library on Tuesday - oh it is so much fun discovering new things at the Library.
Then on Friday we went to visit the Pet Shop where C talked to us about turtles - we have recently added a turtle to our class pets and thought we should go and find out how to look after our noisy turtle!  We also got to see all the other pets that are for sale at the pet shop and to pet a rabbit and a blue tongued lizard.  It was really weird touching the lizard!


















Here's some photos of our class turtle.
Thanks Amy for coming with us to the Library and the Pet Shop!

S'Mores

This week our blend is 'sm' so today we went to the Discovery Room and used the microwave to make our s'mores.  We used two choclate wheaten biscuits and put a marshmallow between them.  Then we put them in the microwave for 20 seconds (some microwaves it only takes 10 seconds) took them out and gently squeezed them together and ate our yummy, gooey yet delicious s'mores.















































Here's the 'S'Mores Song that we added to our poetry books this week.
