Dance

Miss Omundsen has been doing body percussion with Room 10. Students had to produce a rhythm that included some of the 5 body percussion; CLAP, STOMP, CLICK, CHEST, MOUTH.
They share these last week to the class. Having Kaboom was such an inspiration.
Miss Omundsen also showed the class a cool link were you can try doing this online too, give it a go at home on https://www.incredibox.com/

Growing mould on bread

With Miss Omundsen (Our student teacher), we went over to the Science Room to do an experiment. 

The students were finding out if moisture makes a difference to mould growth.

Last week, they were looking at the right to a warm dry home, as they had identifying that many New Zelanders are living in unhealthy, disgusting, damp homes.
There was a bit of excitement as Harry's group tried to dry their bread in the microwave, and smoke started coming out.

Finlay predicts the damp bread will produce the most mould as the temperature and moisture will make the mould grow more quickly.

Can you spot the burnt bread in the photo?

Volunteer weeding

Last Thursday, Miss Bibby took 12 keen weeders over to the preschool to volunteer weeding their front garden. Their enthusiasm and work rate was incredible and I was very proud of them weeding the whole garden in such a short time. What a positive way to be helping in our community and the First Years Preschool really appreciated it. Here a a few pics of our amazing volunteers..
