Robber Fox Talking Book.

Room 4 had great fun creating this Robber Fox talking Book.

Room 4 have a visit to the computer suite (Room 20) every Tuesday afternoon. If any parents are free and would like to help from 2 -3pm that would be terrific. Some children are finding it difficult to log on etc and are still familiarizing themselves with a computer keyboard - to be expected so any help greatly appreciated!
Some pic's from last week. . . .

Children are looking at the new Windows 8 start screen, they can clearly see the big red tiles "Mathletics". 
Next week we will be exploring Paint, so keep watching for some fabulous pictures.

What has been happening in Room 4?

Dear Parents,

Welcome to Room 4's blog.

We have had a busy start to the year with water safety lessons, visits to the library and to the computer suite. We are working out what we know and what we don't know and what we need to learn next. Soon we will have some well established routines and are looking forward to sharing our learning with you.

We have been exploring our school environment and some children have been busy making nests in trees outside Room 4.

The girls decided to write a story together about their activities.
They "planned" their story . . . 

And this is what they wrote . . . 

My Bird's Nest.

Written by Maya, Charlotte and Jacqui

A few days ago we made a nest in a tree in the rock gardens. We used dry grass, twigs, stones, feathers and squished bugs. One bird actually ate a bug. We decided that we wanted to learn how birds make their nests. We found a book which had some pictures of nests in it. The book was helpful for us to learn more about what bird's use to make their nests. Our friends watched us and then they also joined in and helped us at playtime. We hope you like our photo's.

Charlotte was especially interested in this activity and wrote a wonderful story which we read aloud to the class.
