It's been a great first week back after the holidays. The children have gotten back into the swing of early starts and school very quickly and it's been great to see them all!
This week we spent some time recapping on some maths areas that we covered last term such as reading timetables, time and using money. We've also been recapping on adding and subtracting.
We had an exciting visit from the Grade 11 music students who came down to share their instruments with us. They taught us all about how their instruments worked and some of us even got to have a go at playing some!

In preparation for our new unit, we've been reading The Lorax. We created story maps to help us retell the story and had a lot of fun doing so! It's the first time we've had a go at story maps together and the children were very enthusiastic and eager to do them. We also role - played and led the Once-ler down a conscience alley to help him make the right choice...at the end though, just like in the book, our class Once-ler decided more money was the way forward!
