Hand Puppets

We worked very hard on our hand puppets throughout Term 3. We followed a design process:

       Design a puppet ----> Make a mock up ----> Create the puppet ----> Evaluate the work

The puppets are fantastic and will be on display in the classroom next term. Here is a sneak peak!

Shield Winners

Well done to all the shield winners from the last weeks of Term 3: Jake, Lincoln, Sione, Destini and Leoni.

Maths - Problem Solving

We have been working on problem solving in maths. It is really interesting to see all the different ways to tackle the same problem.

You can draw a picture or diagram.


You can use equipment or materials.



You can draw a chart or table.



These are all great ways to work out the answer. It is also interesting to hear the children explaining their thinking. 

We will be doing more of this in Term 4. Great work Room 5 Mathematicians!
