BUSY Week 8 in Room 19

Busy week with robotics and coding. The last SNAG lesson. Chess instruction in the hall for some of us. Our first efforts making fidgets with Tony directing and teaching us.

Design brief: construct a Sail Car using only the materials provided

We had a partner and a plastic bag of construction materials which we turned into a Sailcar.

Cross Country Run & SNAG Golf

SNAG GOLF sessions teach us skills needed to play golf successfully. It's fun.

 CROSS COUNTRY RUN. Here are Year 2 girls beginning

 Room 19 had a number of place getters including a first!

Song of the Sea Show. Introduction to the design process. Junior Disco

Show at Bruce Mason: Song of the Sea.
Learning about the design process; how to start if you want to design something, and what the steps are.
Some Learners "caught" doing their moves at the Junior Disco. Were you there?

Minions' Egg Protecter design and Egg drop challenge.

Minions got together in the hall to design

                                                 and create an egg protecter. 
The raw egg in its packaging (protection) was dropped from a height and checked to see if it was damaged. Three eggs survived and we discussed what was the same about the protection each had.
Ask a Minion and they will tell you the answer.

Wonder Women helped us identify 2D shapes outside

We celebrated the wonderful women in our lives by inviting them to our class to share our learning with us. With an i-pad and a buddy, our wonderful women took us outside to photo 2D shapes around the school. Then they returned to class and helped us describe the characteristics of the shapes we found with another group. We made a 2D picture out of five colourful shapes. We loved the time spent together. Let's do it again next year!
