Bridge Problem

Can you solve this problem?  You have to touch each part of these connecting islands and you can only cross each bridge once.

Farewell to Sarah!

Today is Sarah's last day. She has been in room 8 for 5 weeks and we have loved having her. We hope she has a great end to her study and we wish her all the best for the start of her teaching career. Thanks for all your hard work in Room 8 Sarah! Make sure you come back to visit us :)

Skipping skills

We have been focusing on developing our skipping skills during fitness in the mornings. On Friday we had a demonstration.  Heaps of persevering has been going on to master some of our tricks.

Egg Carton Creations

This week with Sarah we started our egg carton construction for art. We had to plan what we wanted to do last week so we had our ideas sorted in our minds. Her are some of our creations.

Co-operative work

This afternoon we did a co-operative problem solving task. This is part of our inquiry topic this term. We are focusing on competition and co-operation. We had to create a bridge using only newspaper, Sellotape, string and card. We had to make the bridge as long and as strong as possible so that it could hold a 500g weight.
