Egyptian Papyrus

By -

Today Room 9 had lots of fun finishing our Egyptian Papyrus as part of our Learn to Read, Read to Learn Inquiry.  We have discovered that there are many different symbols and scripts from around the world and that the first writing people did looked different to the writing we use now.  We are still waiting for our pulp to soften before we create our own sheets of recycled newspaper.  We would love you to come in and have a look!

Today Room 9 reflected on our Genius Hour Work that we have done most of Term 1. We were using a new strategy called 2 Stars and 1 Wish. The students had to select 2 things they thought their partner did really well on their presentation and 1 wish that they needed to work on for next time. Here are some of of their reflections and some posters the students created.

Wow what a fantastic term we are having!! Here are a few highlights! Rotary Club Dictionaries We were very very fortunate to have the Rotary Club visit us. Not only did they visit, but they came bearing gifts! All Year Four students were given their very own Illustrated Dictionary to keep! Thank you so much, we love them and have been putting them to great use - especially during Vivid Vocabulary. You're so special to me... We have been practicing singing Six 60's 'Special'. We have loved singing this in class so much that preformed it in assembly. Here is a quick snapshot. POP! POP! POP! Yummy in our tummies!! Miss Meredith brought in her popcorn maker and together we made popcorn. It was delicious. While it was being made, we wrote down what we could see, hear and smell.Then the fun part, we got to EAT it!! There were some amazing stories and poems to come from this experience - POP into our class to check out our writing.
