Showing Movement

How can you show movement in a photo? We realised that if someone is actually moving in a photo it will be blurry! Last weeks #handsonhomework challenge was to take a photo showing movement. Can you guess what movement they are showing?

Teach Me Tuesday Catch-Up!

At the end of Term 2, Mrs Smith was lucky enough to get to see some Teach Me Tuesday lessons.  I heard they were fabulous and a real range of skills were taught.  Jayden was teaching the class how to make windmills and Grace was developing some Silver Ferns for the future. I can't believe I missed out on donut making with Sienna and it sounded like Josh taught the class lots about his trips abroad. We also had Josie's TMT in Week 7. She was getting her scientist hat on and showing Room 17 what happened when you added dishwashing liquid and food colouring to milk.  Here's some snaps from all the lessons.

Comic Genius!

What great fun we had on Friday reading the comics some Room 17 students did.  Some students drew their own and some used websites like Make Belief Comix. All in all we had a good giggle reading the different stories each comic told. 

Sustainability at Home

Can you tell what action these students are taking to show sustainability?

My favourite part of Friday

I love looking at homework books on a Friday and seeing what everyone's done for their hands-on homework, it's my favourite part of Friday!! Check out all the different ways the Room 17 learners found out about the birds that live in their backyard.

Jayden's Hands-on Homework

Here's Jayden seeing how many claps he can do before he catches the ball.  I wonder who in Room 17 will get the most claps!?!
