Libby's Bubble Boats

Sam's wheelchair

In reading we have been learning how to use Groupboard, an app on our tablets.
This time we used it for sharing our ideas aboout a boy called Sam who has brittle bone disease. Our groupboard is some of the things he might like on his wheelchair. Sam was also an inventor, the wheelchairs the hospital gave him didn't work as well as he wanted so he made one that could do mostly anything.

Treasure Hunting at Pirate's Stream

This term in maths we are learning about direction and position. This week we had to complete a treasure hunt, following the compass directions to find the buried treasure. We had to collect stamps, gold dubloons and other things along the way!
Can you guess where we found the treasure?

 Here is the map of Pirate's Stream that we had to follow:

What do you think was in the treasure chest?!

Gina and Lance's volcano

Here are some pictures of our volcano that we are making at Discovery Learning.

This is me with my volcano.

This is just our volcano.

This is Lance with our volcano

Deconstruction with Ben and Lance

Here is Ben and Lance fully engaged in one of our Discovery Learning activites, deconstruction.  Oh, I forgot to tell them they need to reconstruct the sewing machine once they have deconstructed!

The "How To" Project

This term, part of our learning in writing has been how to write instructions. One of our tasks was the "How To" project - we each had to select something that we could teach others how to do, write instructions and film a matching instructional video. Coming up on our blog you will see each of our instructional videos, with the written instructions to download if you want to try this things at home.
We hope you enjoy our writing!
