My Myth By Samantha

Once upon a time there was a blue, green and white chicken. One day the chicken laid eight eggs. They became Pluto, Neptune, Saturn, Uranus, Jupiter, Mars, Mercury and Venus. That day the chicken burst. Its eyes became the Sun and the Moon and its body became the Earth. Its legs became the rings around Saturn and Uranus and its lice became people. That is how the Solar System began.

Trundle Wheels







Today for maths, our class have been measuring distance using Trundle Wheels. We had to measure how far it was in metres from our classroom to various places around the school including the office, sports shed, front door and toilets. We enjoyed using the Trundle Wheels.

The Titanic



In literacy our group have been reading about the Titanic. We were just reading it a few days ago and we found out lots of things about the people who were on the ship. There were 20 life boats which was not enough because the 20 life boats could only hold about 1000 people and there were more than 2000 people on the ship. Some people in our group made a model of the Titanic using MAB blocks. They made it look just like the real one. Jeremy brought in a model that he had of the Titanic too. It was really good.
