Maths Vocabulary

In maths class we made vocabulary posters. Me and my partner chose to do addition. The poster had lots of words on it that could be used in addition problems. It will help other kids in addition problems. We showed the posters to Room 8 to teach them the language.

Grandparents Mass

At school we had grandparents mass. It's a mass at school that you can bring your grandparents along with. Afterwards there was some food and we could have a snack with our grandparents. We could also show our grandparents what we had been learning about in class. Grandparents mass was really fun, I can't wait to do it again next year.

Mini BB Fair

This week we had a school fundraiser called the Mini BB Fair. It was a mini fair were we only sold books and baking. We were fundraising for a mural on our power box. It was great seeing all of the books and baking being sold. We ended up raising lots of money and smiles on kids faces. 

My Netball Tournament

Yesterday, I had a netball tournament at St Johns Netball Courts. When we got there we placed a mat down, ate and then walked over to the court where our first game was held on. The first game we played we versed Balmoral Gold and we won, 4-5 so it was a really close match. We repeated the same routine but versed different teams. We actually won all of our games so we got into the finals. In the finals we versed O.L.S.H (Our Lady Of The Sacred Heart). Everyone that played came on the court we played on and they all cheered us on. We ended up coming first in our whole year. It was the best tournament ever. 

Animal poster

In class we are learning about the different types of animals and we showed our learning on a poster. The types of animals we are mostly learning about are vertebrates, invertebrates, fish, reptiles, birds, amphibians and mammals. Invertebrates are animals that have spines and vertebrates are animals that don't have spines.

My speech

In class everyone wrote a speech on a topic of your choice. The speech topic I chose was 4 Unexplained Mysteries of the World. I said it to the class yesterday and I was so nervous. Everybody's speech had to be over 2m 30s and under 3m 30s otherwise you will get deducted points. A couple of people that got the highest marks go to the semi-finals. The semi-finals is where the people from your class that got the highest marks and the people from the class that is the same year level (which in this case is room six) that got the highest marks verse each other. The three people that get the highest marks from the two teachers got to the finals. This time the whole school listens to your speech and the judges chooses who gets 1st, 2nd and 3rd.
