Room 3 Rocks!

We bounce through the door each morning ready to go! We love our school, teachers and everyone else who comes along to visit us. We try to keep fit with lots of sport, jump jam, cross country and swimming in the summer. Children publish new posts on the blog independently and so some spellings may not be correct. Come and have a look!

The Thief


The thief
On a rainy day naughty James came in room three and it was his first day.  He barged into the cloak bay and a beautiful girl was frightened to death.  He hung his heavy bag on a peg.  He snuck into the classroom.  The teacher’s name was Mrs Reddish. 
Naughty James wanted to steal the girl’s purse.  At morning tea he looked in her bag.  He pulled out an orange and yellow purse.  He got out what he wanted.  It was five cents but her cell phone fell out and smashed and after the cell phone, her glasses fell out and they smashed too! 
But then a mysterious hand grabbed his shoulder.  He thought it was Mrs Reddish.  But it wasn’t Mrs Reddish, it was the Principal!  Naughty James ran away but then the Principal got him and then his mum got him and took him home and told him off.

What are we eating?

Brain food!  Healthy fruit, vegetables and cheese were eaten today for brain food.  We later talked about whether burger and chips for brain food would be a good thing!  What do you think?
 We also looked in everyone's lunch boxes.  We will be deciding what we should and shouldn't have in their!  Watch this space!

Pictogram Precision

In Maths we made a human graph to show when our birthdays were.  Then we made a pictogram and displayed it on the wall in Room 4.  Now we are going to add all the rest of the children in the school.





Super Swimming Sensations

Last week's swimming sports at The Splash Centre was a fantastic event.  All the children from Fordell swam;  some did races, some demonstrated their talents and others danced in the water chanting nursery rhymes.  Thanks to all the parents and family members who turned up to support the event.  Awesome!

Balloon Bonanza!

In Science last week we did a balloon jet experiment.  We threaded a straw onto a piece of string and then taped an air filled balloon to the straw.  The string was pulled tight and when the balloon was released it forced the straw to the other end of the string.  A different shaped balloon travelled a different distance because of the air resistance.  Friction eventually stopped the straw.  Great fun.


Time Together


A wonderful time with pre-school.
 Pre-school and Room 3 get together every fortnight to share reading time.  Everyone really enjoys the experience.
 Brothers, sisters and friends unite to share a story.

Gravity testing!





The children in Room 3 have been finding out about gravity.  Gravity certainly helps you go down the slide.
 Trying to defy gravity didn't last very long!
 Hang on in there boys!
 And girls!

Learning outdoors is great fun.  Room 3 know that gravity is a force that pulls everything towards the centre of the Earth.
