Pumanuwa

Every Monday after lunch room six would do an activity for example yoga, kitchen science, cartooning and performing arts. I did cartooning. We learnt how to draw realistically and learnt

 some new skills to help our art work. We learnt how to do some comic strips and had so much fun.

GSS Book Week 2019

Room 6 was hungry for books during our book week.  We had a whole week celebrating all things books.  We had Author visits from Stu Duval and James Rusell.  Stu presented workshops on storytelling, cartooning, and writing.  James shred his books and told us stories.  We did lots of cool book week activities in class like making dust jacket covers, wanted posters, bookmarks, and story cubes.  Finally our favourite day arrived, Friday.  We got to dress up as our favourite characters and partake in the literacy treasure hunt.  Overall book week is a fantastic week every year.  Room 6 LOVES BOOK WEEK!                     
                                                   Here are some photos from our time:

Watercare

Water, water everywhere! On Friday of week 6, we were lucky to have Sally from Watercare come to teach us more about the water. We did a drama activity and experiments. Firstly we examined the process that water goes through to become drinkable water in our households. Our drama was based on the process that the water to be cleaned. We were the water going through each stage. We had so much fun as we ventured around the school. Once we learnt how water is cleaned we then had to try and clean the dirty water ourselves. We had to create a filter system in partners. We had to do four different tests for our experiments. We experimented with a range of filters to try and test which filter system was the best.
