We have been doing lots of floating and sinking experiments. Mrs Paterson challenged us to make our tinfoil into something that would hold Teddys. Some didn't even hold 1 but Kaitlyn got hers to stay afloat with 27 Teddys. Wow! I wonder why it worked so well?

We made little boats out of walnut shells. We added masts and sails. Then we experimented to see which boats floated best and then we had a race. Look at the sails on the winning boats. Why do you think they were the fastest boats?

On Thursday Wayne and Mate came to visit. We learnt all about how to be safer around dogs.

Before we started to do our experiments we brainstormed what we knew about Floating and Sinking.
Then we predicted which things would float and which ones would sink.

We have been asking questions about "Water" . These are our "wonderings". We hope we can find out some answers.

Today Melody, Hamish and Samantha joined us for a school visit. We had a great morning with some of our Room 10 big friends. They made up lots of fun games for us using the equipment in the Sport Tasman Trailer that has been at school all week.
What a wonderful, fun week we have had.

We have had a wonderful week doing Fundamental Skills at the stadium. We had motor sensory activities, futsal, bats and balls, ball skills, swimming and water safety.
We are all proud of ourselves for giving everything a go and doing things we never thought we could do especially in the pool.
Many of us can now go under the water, pick up things from the bottom of the pool, float on our fronts and even on our backs.
We know that when we fall into the water, we need to roll onto our backs and relax.
If we go in a boat, we know that we need to wear a life jacket and we know how to use it safely if we need to.
We will all sleep very well this weekend.

This morning was really cold and we didn't feel like going outside. We found lots of great games on the shelves and we learnt how to play them properly so we could really enjoy them. It was Melody's first visit and she enjoyed playing with Mylee, Kaitlyn and Molly.
