Portrait Pictures

On Tuesday, Kindle 2 went to the Art Gallery. We saw some rather interesting portraits while we were there. Mrs Dakers was given permission to photograph these ones. Hmmmm..... the people in these portraits look familiar somehow. What do you think?

The photographs below show the Kindle 2 artists making and talking about their own portraits. They are displayed on the wall in Kindle 2. The exhibition will run for a limited time.

Road Safety

Constable Parcell has been visiting Kindle 2 to help us learn about Road Safety. Last Tuesday we got to sit in the patrol car and practise putting on our seatbelts.
 

We have learned a little poem to help us remember the kerb drill:

Stop, Look and Listen
Before you cross the street
Use your eyes, use your ears
Before you use your feet.

2012 - The first three weeks

Well here we are! After three weeks at school, we are settling into routines and are well underway with learning.  Look what we have been up to at Discovery Time over the past few weeks:

What have we been learning about .....

Over the last two weeks in Kindle 2, we have been learning about 2 dimensional and 3 dimensional shapes with Mrs Ellison our college teacher. 

We have also been talking about objects that float or sink and why they do this. On Monday we had a visit from a remote controlled helium filled shark! Wow!

Woolly Visitors

Kindle 2 were lucky enough to join Room 3 when Jessica brought some friends to visit today. We got to pat the lambs and some people even got to feed them.

Junior Assembly

On Friday, Kindle 1 and 2 were on the stage for Junior Assembly.
We sang a Samoan song called 'Le Aute' and recited a poem called 'Cheese Please'. The children were very excited about being on the stage. Do you recognise any of these cute mice?
