Week 6, Term 3, 2015 Kindy Visit and P.E

We were excited this week to meet out new P.E teacher, Arn. 
He played some games which meant we had to move around in different ways. We also had to practice our under arm throw and aim.
P.E with Arn was fun!

On Friday it was Mufti day for the Cancer Society and Odd Shoe Day for children with cancer. We also went next door to the kindy to give them the book we wrote about school as apart for book week. They welcomed us to the kindy with a special song.
We also got to stay and have a play. For some of us it was great to be back playing at the Kindy, for others ,it was a fun place to explore new things.
We are hoping to get to visit the Kindy again soon.

Book Week, Week 5, Term 3, 2015

This week was Book Week. We did lots of fun activities with books.
On Monday we were lucky enough to be the first class to go to the Book Fair in the Library. We thought the Library looked amazing! Our fish art as well as the art by the rest of the school helped to decorate the Library.








On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday we had some different teachers come and read us some books after morning tea. We thought it was great!

On Tuesday we did our window display for the book "Animalia" by Graham Base. Miss McCoy chose this book because it has the letters of the alphabet in. We have been learning the alphabet and the letter sounds. This book has alliteration in it. Alliteration is when the words start with the same letter.


On Wednesday we went to a book reading with props by Kirsty.
We had to warm up for reading. We warmed up our eyes, ears and our voices. 
Kirsty needed her breathe freshener to freshen her breathe so her breathe wouldn't run out while reading. It took her awhile to find it.
She found her second pair of ears...
She found a loud speaker...
She found croc...lots of clothes and reading glasses before she found her breathe freshner. 
We read Caps for Sale.
Kirsty did lots of actions and got us to help her read. It was a lot of fun!
We then acted out the story and sang a song. It was a lot of fun! In the story all the monkeys stole the hats and we got to be the monkeys with the hats on.

Our Discovery was book themed. Each room had an activity with a different book.

On Thursday we came to school dressed up as a book character. Our grandparents also came to read with us. This was a fun day! On Thursday night we came to school for some bedtime stories in our Pajamas. We loved the Thursday activities!! 







On Friday we did more fun book things. We read to our buddy class and did book art and craft and we had a book scavenger hunt. We had to hunt out the books and write down the titles.


We loved book week!
