Mr Eco

Hi everyone, Mr Eco came to our school today to talk to us about the environment. He was a rapper. So he rapped his songs. They were about:

A litterbug - not litter anywhere
Bag Monster - not using plastic bags - use re-usable bags
Save some for the fishes - saving water - everything going down drains goes to the ocean
Straw Wars - not to use plastic straws - Ask for "no straw" when your order food out
Eco Anthem - being a super hero / eco hero

Here is the link to his You Tube channel. To listen to the raps again and check out his blog and vlog.

Scooter time

Hi everyone, we had our scooter time today. It was a great positive experience for all children. Constable Merv noticed that a lot of Room 14 did not have helmets that fitted properly.
Please talk with your child tonight and ask them what three things they have to do to make sure their helmet fits them. A poster is below for you to consult. We also learned the parts of our scooter, safety clothing and how to emergency brake.
Enjoy the photos.

Learning time tables with Karate Kat

Hi everyone, just came across this link for learning the times tables. If you are using a laptop or chrome book it is free.

Karate Kat is based on a karate theme. Looks good.

Check it out. Miss J.

Middle School Assembly

Hi everyone, Room 14 ran Middle School Assembly this week. Below please find some pictures of the art work we shared. Thanks.

Our picture is an outline of a soldier standing in a poppy field. First we outlined the soldier with Sharpies. Then we used black paint on a tissue to smudge the paint to give this effect. We had to be careful to make sure the paint didn’t go on the solider or end up with big black blobs everywhere.

Once the paint was dried, we drew poppies in pencil, outlined them in back and used red paint to fill in the petals. We spent some time practicing drawing poppies on an internet site.

This was great fun to do and don’t they look amazing.

Certificate week 1 term 2

Library day has changed to Monday so children will have to be super organised and have library books ready to come back on Sunday night.

Below is a link to a writers challenge. It may be of interest to some of room 14.
