Go Room 7!

We have been doing lots of learning about how to be role models. Today we have 3 role models.

Jordan - For persevering at packing his bag all on his own (it was a bit tricky). Ka Pai!

 
Jayden - For persevering to turn his jersey in the right way. Keep it up Jayden


Max - For looking after all of his belongings (he took all of his things home today). Well done Max!


Firewise

Room 7 has been learning about firewise.
We have learnt about how to be safe around fire e.g. a heater, a stove, the fire place, a bbq.
Today we learnt about fire alarms and what to do when we hear one. This is what we learnt:

1. Stop what we are doing
2. Get out of the room 'FAST'
3. Shut the door (if you are the last one)
4. Go to our safe meeting place (Outside Room 5 and 6)

Room 7 practiced what to do:
Here is a photo of us at our safe meeting place

 
Thank you to all the parents who have discussed with their children where their safe meeting place is at their house.

Reading

After morning tea Room 7 read from their books boxes. We have to put the book box in the middle of the group. We pick a book out and then turn around so we dont distract others. We read our book outloud or in our minds. When we have finished the book we quickly choose another one to read. Here are some role models from yesterday.

Problem Solving

Our role model of the day is Maia. Yesterday, Maia couldn't pack her pack. She had to keep persevering to solve her problem and she did it all on her own. Today she asked Mrs Lynch for some help packing her bag and then she said: '

'Oh no, I remember how I solved the problem yesterday!"

Great problem solving Maia!

Cross Country

I was really proud of all the children in Room 7 today. They all did a wonderful job running around the paddock! Some of the hills were quite steep and there were lots of prickles to keep away from. It was great to see lots of smiles at the end. Great persevering Room 7!

Role Models

We are learning how to be a 'Role Model'. We brainstormed ways to be a role model:

Here are some of our ideas:
-Sit in our learning position
-Look after our things
-Help clean up the classroom
-Be a kind friend



Today we had 2 role models:

Jordan: For helping clean up the classroom

Brooklyn: For being a kind friend

Well done! I wonder who will be the role models tomorrow?

Pet Day

What a fun day we had at Pet Day! Lots of children bought pets along. There were lots of different kinds of animals like dogs, cats, chickens, guinea pigs, ponies, lambs and calves. The children who didn't bring a pet from Room 7 decorated a gumboot. They looked really fantastic!
