The year has finished. We have had a fantastic year in Room 10. Merry Christmas and safe holidays.

Inquiry Learning

This term we have been inquiring into Money Matters. In our groups we created a product to sell at market day.

                                        We are making boxes to decorate.

                            We are making bracelets and necklaces with beads.

                                                We are making racing cars.

                                              We are making robots.

                                             We made cup cakes and are ready to sell.

Look at all of the buying and selling happening at Market Day.

Creating Cars

During Inquiry this term we are investigating and turning our class into a Financial Community.

To start the Inquiry we have been earning Junior Dollars. We used the money to purchase materials to make the cars we designed in our Inquiry groups. 

We then raced our cars to see which car could go the furtherest distance. 

Well done Aquilino, Maia and Inis for creating the winning car in Room 10. 

Enjoying reading a book to my friends.

I like reading book to the class. I am a clever reader.

Today we have been experimenting with light.

Here we are making simple circuits with batteries, wires and light bulbs.

We used a torch and a cup of milky water to make a sunset.

The light is shining through particles, when the light hits the particles the light bounces off and scatters.

Orange and red colours scatter the least, this is why we see these colours in a sunrise or sunset.
