Week 6, Term 4
Can you believe we are at the half way point of our last term? Where has this year gone?! We have continued working hard and making excellent gains in our learning.
Inquiry
We have continued our learning about keeping our bodies healthy. Have a look at the video above which shows how some parts of our body works.
Out of Uniform Day
We loved wearing our sport colours on the out of uniform day on this week. Our school raised $253 for the St Vincent de Paul Christmas Appeal with this fundraiser.
Assembly
Congratulations to our Award recipients at Assembly: AJ, Hannah, Olivia P and Charli.
The BFG
We are reading the BFG as a class book. It has a lot of strange words like 'snozcumbers!' We have been using our visualisng skills to build comprehension and deepen our understanding of the text. We visualised what we think the BFG would look like using the 'picture' words from the text. What do you think of our interpretation?
Are his ears as big as truck tires? Does he have a long black coat. a large suitcase and a long thin trumpet?

MathsChance and Data
Our Learning Intentions during this unit are:
Probability (subjective) - We understand what we want does not always effect what will happenProbability (theoretical) - We understand we can use our knowledge to predict outcomes/results.Randomness - We understand that although you can predict what will happen it sometimes may not happen. Eg; Using a coloured spinner.This video shows us testing our prediction of the following scenario:If I rolled 2 six sided dice 100 times and added the two numbers together, which total would come up most often? We tested our predictions by rolling 2, 6 sided dice up to 100 times to get data which showed reliable trends. This was a challenging activity!
