Where is Room 2?

I can't find them anywhere.....

Perhaps if we look here                         http://Room2TasmanSchool.blogspot.com

Sadly no one except Mrs W could use their old blog ... so now they have a brand new address.

Bookmark them and keep an eye out for what they are up to!

Math

Jumping frogs?

How do frogs help us to add & subtract?

Well - frogs jump and we are learning to jump

from a starting number in lots of different ways.

Some of us jump in twos.

Some of us jump in fives.

Some of us jump in tens.

And some of us jump in hundreds.

We discovered that some of our frogs

were 'take-away' frogs. Can you guess

which way they jumped?

Reading Practice

We practise reading every day in Room 2. Everyone chooses a book from their browsing box or brings one from home. The chosen book must be one that each child can read independently. We love reading and listening to stories. Thank you for the wonderful books sent from home.

Great reading Sam!

PENGUIN SURVIVAL GAME

We learnt about some of the dangers that penguins face. Here are some members of Room 2 as penguins trying to navigate oil slicks, pollution, feral cats and other threats. It was great to have Richard de Hamel with us to share his expert knowledge of the marine ecosystem.

SUNSMART

Our first mini topic for the start of the term is Sunsmart. We will be doing some science and health activities to do with the sun and being sunsmart over the summer.

AT AT DAY AFTERNOON

What would you do if you had an AT-AT walker for a pet?

DINOSAUR ESCAPE

I saw a big animal and it looked like a dinosaur. I ran because a big dinosaur was chasing me. I hid. Soon I heard a squeaking sound. Then an animal jumped out of the bush. I said, "have you got food for me?"

RRRRRRRRRRRRR...I think he said.

I chased him. He showed me some berries. A big dinosaur ran after me. My friend picked me up and flew away.

THE ADVENTURE

Suddenly enemies were scattering towards me. I found a stick and threw it at them. Then i fell down...down...down back home again and I lived happily ever after.

DINOSAUR ADVENTURE
