Friends acrostic poem

Today in writing Miss McClelland's writing group wrote acrostic poems about friends.

We started by brainstorming words about friends that started with each letter of the word friends. This part was pretty tricky because we had to think of words that related to our friends.

Next we chose one word for each letter.

Then we had to download the image as a jpeg file.

Here is our acrostic poem. Please leave a comment and check out our individual blogs to see more poems.

If I could talk to a snake, I would ask it...

Today in reading with Miss McLeod (online), we read chapter 2 of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. It's called the Vanishing Glass.

After we read the chapter, we played another Kahoot and then we did an activity where we had to think about what we would ask a snake if we could talk to it.

Here are the questions we would like to ask...

What would you ask a snake if you could talk to it?

Online Learning- Day 1 with Miss McLeod

What a fantastic 'first day' of Term 2- learning from home.

I had a lovely time connecting with all the children who joined for my writing and reading sessions and my Q & A/ check in session. It was so great to see all of your happy faces and I look forward to tomorrow!

Here is a screenshot of some happy faces from my writing session.

Today in writing we begun making a comic using Pixton. Stay tuned for some finished products on Friday!

For reading my class really enjoyed listening to me read Chapter 1 of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. Then we played a Kahoot (with some teething problems). It was lots of fun.

Congratulations to our top three scorers! 

1st place: Lucas

2nd place: Jayden

3rd place: Jed

 

Close behind was Cameron and Cole!

Remember if you missed our learning hangouts for today- these are recorded and uploaded to our Google Site.

Welcome to Term 2

It is great to get back into some learning (even if it is at home online).
Today Mrs Jones' reading groups (10 that joined the Google Hangout) read a story on EPIC called "Memoirs of a Goldfish" and then they did a quiz on EPIC that Mrs Jones made.
These are our results - 2 people got everything 100% correct!!  Great work Tovie and Son.

Google Hangout

Hi everyone!

It was so awesome to see all of your happy smiling faces this morning on our Google Hangout- especially because we were expecting to not be able to see you all!

My favourite part was hearing about what you'd all been up to! I love that most of you are continuing some form of learning from home! I especially impressed with those of you who are all updating your blogs regularly as well.

We miss you all and will organise some more Google Hangouts for after the holiday break. Remember though, that you can still email us if you have any questions and we will reply as soon as we can!

A little reminder for your next Google Hangout to make sure you are not in your bedroom- remember your cybersmart lessons!

Keep up the great stuff you're doing during this time everyone!
