To connect all our learning about insects and bugs we spent time in groups talking about what insects we think are helpful and harmful. All the children had their own ideas and thoughts and make a chart to share with the class about why they placed different bugs in the helpful or harmful category.

On Thursday we spent time in groups looking at books about spiders. We have been learning about different insects and are now moving into what we think is harmful or helpful in the environment.

Last week was Road Safety. 

We had a great time on Wednesday riding our scooters and bikes around the school!

We had an amazing afternoon learning about bugs and some differences and similarities between many types of insects. We also had a wander through some other museum exhibitions and enjoyed seeing the different displays.

Casting Magic with Worms

Room 15 had a wonderful time at the Botanic Gardens with worm expert Pete and he taught us many interesting facts about worms and how important they are for the growth of plants. We also loved getting our hands dirty making our own worm farms!

Some early finishers at writing have been trying hard to get the giant puzzle completed...and last Thursday they finally did!

Room 15 also love our reading corner so much that after morning tea children choose to snuggle in there and look at books together.

Swimming has been an awesome start to the school year and many of Room 15's children have grown in confidence in the pool!
