Balloon Fun

We had a lot of fun blowing up balloons for some games that will be at the Burnside Primary School Fun Day tomorrow! We are all very excited!!!

Bottle top art - simple machines

We are busy using all the lids that we collected to make some art works to decorate our school.  We've been learning about simple machines and have been using a screw driver to attach the lids to the wood.  It took a lot of effort and time so now we are using a drill.  It is a lot of fun and makes it much faster to put the screws through the plastic and into the wood.  

Can you guess what we are making with the lids?

Maths learning

We have been using abacus to help us with our numeracy learning.  These help us to learn the patterns that the numbers make.  We also make these on our fingers and on tens frames.  We can use the different ways to check our accuracy.

Balancing

Look at all the different ways we can use our bodies to balance.

Discovery Time

Look at all the different things we have to choose from at Discovery Time.  We are enjoying thinking of our own creative ideas to make.
