Looking Great Fabulous Amazing Fantastic Everyone!

Dear Families for those of you who are busy and find it tricky to visit our room in person, this is what Room 20 is looking like right now!
Soon we have to take everything down for the end of the year so we thought we would show you all now!


Our Class Dojos. We are all different and we appreciate that fact when we are learning and working together. We each designed our own character and wrote the speech bubble to describe what our character is like.


These are our camouflaged Skinks and Stick Insects - can you find them? What are their Adaptations to their Environment or Habitat?



Look at this herd of Zebras! The idea was to learn how to paint a sunset background and show silhouettes with the trees. And then the Zebra is in the front or the foreground. The black and white patterning links well into maths and was a challenge to those that are used to patterning only from left to right! Black tissue paper was added to enhance the 3-D illusion.


Look at these glorious giraffes! Hands on construction is always fun and it's a great way to recycle found objects. We have used giraffes as a subject for Maths Inquiry learning  about estimation and measuring height.

Tinker Time with the Osmos coding

Coding has now been added to our apps. Lots of discussion and forward thinking is needed to solve these problems. Lateral thinking and perseverance are really important in Room 20!




Look at Joshua and see his feeling of success!

Water water everywhere...

Did you know that a person who studies water is called a Hydrologist!







Thank you Mrs Long for being our recorder today as we brainstormed our ideas about water! 

The Water Molecule Cheer: 
Give me an H! 
Give me a 2! 
Give me an O! 
What does that spell?
H2O!
When atoms join together they form molecules. A water molecule is made up of 2 Hydrogen atoms and 1 Oxygen atom. Atoms are teeny tiny building blocks that you can't see. Water molecules lock into position when they freeze...brrr!
