Measurement - Weight (Mass)

One of the activities we did when we were learning about weight was to choose a soft toy, estimate which toys were heavier than others and then weigh them with balance scales to put them in order from heaviest to lightest. There were some surprises because the biggest toys were not always the heaviest.

Statistics

Kindle 2 have been doing Statistics at maths time. We are learning to ask a question, sort things, count, present information, interpret information and make statements about a graph. One of our questions was 'How many boys and girls in Kindle 2?' The graph is behind the door in the classroom. Here is the photo to go with it.
Mrs Dakers said "Stand in a nice straight line Kindle 2!" :)

Swimming

We are nearly at the end of our swimming block. It has been fun walking to the pool and having swimming lessons with the Jill Clark Swim School. All of the children have gained skills and confidence in the water.











Life Education

On Wednesday 19th and Thursday 20th of February, Kindle 1 and 2 visited Harold and Richard in the Life Education mobile classroom. Our topic was 'Air to Live.' We learned about the Respiration or Breathing Cycle.

Road Safety

We have been learning about Road Safety. It is very handy for when we have to cross the road to visit the library or go to assembly. This week we will be walking to swimming - we will walk on the house side of the footpath and watch out for sneaky driveways. Children in Kindle 2 only cross the road with an adult. This poem helps us remember what to do:
