What are we doing in Topic?

We are currently studying The Environment. Each student is looking at one aspect that interests them. These include - recycling, rainforests, oceans, deserts, wind power, pollution, solar energy. Over the holidays it would be great if the children could spend a little time researching their topic.

This research could occur in many forms-

1. Talking - discuss the topic with someone - even while you are sitting in the airport departure lounge!

2. Looking - look around - can you see something related to your topic.

3. Reading - read about it - books, websites.

4. Viewing - watch shows/movies/DVDs about it.

5. Writing - write down notes about your findings.

6. Sharing - share your notes with someone

7. Ask Questions - write down some questions you want to try and answer.

Carol Concert

We just performed our dress rehearsal. Phew! Few teething problems but we are now ready for our first performance tomorrow. The children are very excited!

Dioramas

The children have all been working really hard on creating dioramas. They will be using the setting of their diorama to create a piece of writing.
Ask them what their setting is.
