Fun Day!!

We filled the golf-ball jar in Room 3 so as a reward we were allowed a fun day!  The day started off with some games of musical chairs and pass-the-parcel.  We all got a glow stick and some bubbles out of the pass-the-parcel!  Mrs M left us to blow bubbles and wave around the glow sticks and she went and cooked up some popcorn for us to watch some of The Lorax.  Mrs M had also provided some other food and fizzy so we had a little picnic in the classroom.  After that we went down to the hall to have an impromptu concert with the microphone.  We enjoyed singing and telling jokes in front of every one and every body liked the sound of their own voice when they used the microphone!  When we had finished the little concert we played some more games in the class and then it was time for lunch!  After lunch we had SMARTS.  We enjoyed our fun day!  We will try to fill that golf-ball jar again!  Check out some photos from our fun day!

Here we are with our bubbles and glow sticks!  Awesome!

Eating popcorn, chips and fruit kebabs!

This is good Mrs M!

Put the Lorax on now Mrs M while we are having our small picnic!

Working Together!

In Room 3 we really try hard to work together to solve problems or to achieve good results.  We are getting better at sharing pens and resources when we are together in a group.  We are learning to take turns at things so it is fair.  We all want to be the leader but we are beginning to understand that it is important to share the jobs around as it makes it a better place with less conflict if we do this.  Here we are in small groups working together by sharing and taking turns to solve some quiz questions that Mrs M asked...

Hard at work - Trying to solve the quiz question

We are tired Mrs M...

I think this everybody.  What do you think?

We are finished Mrs M..... because we worked together to solve the problem!

We are working hard here!

Junior Sharing Time

Today (4th July 2013) Rooms 1,2,3 and 6 at Gore Main School had a Junior Sharing Time.  It was fantastic for all the Junior classrooms to come together and celebrate their learning.  Well done to the Room 1 children who shared their favourite thing, Room 2 who showed some ocean art and drama about the right thing to do in the ocean (ie take only what you need) and Room 6 who sang "Cheeky little fantail".  Room 3 performed a song called "Summer Jive".  We thought by performing this it may persuade the sun to come out!  The video went for too long so it was difficult to save but check out some photos!
