Five Senses Poems

We have been writing some poetry this term. We wrote some poems using our senses - looking, hearing, tasting, touching and smelling.

I like the taste of honey because it’s yummy.
I like the smell of perfume because it smells nice.
I like the feel of fur because it’s fluffy.
I like the sound of TV because it might say something special.
I like the look of treasure because it is so shiny. – By Charleen


I like the taste of jelly and chocolate because it goes all gooey and watery.
I like the smell of brownies because it smells delicious.
I like the feel of fur because it is soft.
I like sound of music because it sounds good. – By Yolanda.


I like the taste of ice-cream because it is cold on sunny days.
I like the smell of perfume because it makes you smell nice.
I like the feel of soft fur because it feels really soft.
I like the sound of people laughing because it makes me join in.
I like the look of gold because it is my favourite colour. - By Sky.

Term 3 Maths - Multiplication and Division

This term we have been learning about groups of numbers (Multiplication) and sharing (Division).
We had the problem:
There are some cars in a carpark. There are 6 rows with 5 cars in each row. How many cars are there altogether?
We had to draw what it would look it and then write the equation. There are some examples of our thinking on the yellow paper.

Another problem:
A pirate crew found some treasure. They found 24 pieces of gold. There were 4 pirates in the crew. They need to share out the gold. How many does each pirate get? There are some examples of our thinking on the orange paper.

Term 3 - Inquiry: Encore

This term for Inquiry we have been investigating what it takes to put on a performance. We designed characters for our performance. Some of us were superheroes and some of us were villans. We designed capes and masks for our costumes. We watched some Michael Jackson music videos for some help with our dances. We also wrote our own scripts for a short drama. We had to practice, practice, practice. We then got to film our performances. We learned that it takes a lot of effort to put on a performance!

Pop Art

Do you know which student from room two the picture is? We created these by doing line drawings of ourselves. Ms Steers then did some "magic" photocopying for us and we had 6 pictures of our face. We had to dye our Art using only four colours. You had to make sure you did a different colour for your face and your background.

Paper Mosaic Art

We used lots of little pieces of coloured paper to make a picture. They are called mosaics. Can you guess what shape is in the middle of the picture?

Building Reflection Art

We dyed our background. Then we had to cut out shapes that looked like buildings. We created a reflection!
