What's The Time Mr Wolf?

I am learning to tell the time by knowing the different parts of an analog clock.

Tsung Wai "The long hand is the minutes. The short hand is the time. We go to school at 9 o’clock and we finish school at 3 o’clock."

Acrostic Poem

I am learning to write an Acrostic poem by using describing words.

Lots of legs

Antennas

Yummy leaves

Blue ladybugs

Under leaves

Garden for a ladybug.

Tsung Wai "It was tricky to think of describing words. My class helped me."

Ladybug Collage

Here we sketched ladybugs onto black paper. Then we cut out the ladybugs and leaves. We added spots and strips to add detail to our ladybugs and leaves. It was very time consuming when it came to gluing all the pieces together, but we done it!

Tsung Wai "I liked how I made the leaves it was so easy. I found it hard making the ladybug. It was so tricky for me but the leaves wasn’t tricky for me."

Memorable Moment

I am learning to write about a funny moment.

Tsung Wai "It was easy when I was writing my story because I tried to sound the words out so I can get the letters right and the words. Nothing was hard."

Maths Games

This is one of my favourite maths games to play during maths tumble.

Tsung Wai "To play you find the missing numbers to put in the equal numbers so we can complete the level and we have the most colour. It's for two players. I like to play it with Raymond" 

Reading Eggs

Reading Eggs is an online reading program that helps children learn to read. Hundreds of online reading lessons, phonics games and books to read.

Tsung Wai "I like to go on the puzzle park and I like to do the second word find. There are lots of puzzles and word finds to do. I have to do all the levels to go onto the next lesson."

Bubble Wands

This week Room 5 made bubble wands.  They wanted to see if different shaped wands made different shaped bubbles.

We discovered that no matter what shape the bubble wands were, the bubble will always come out in the shape of a sphere.

Bubbles

For inquiry we are learning all about Bubbles.

We are learning what bubbles are made out of and describing what they look like too!

Here we were making bubbles to help us describe bubbles by using our five senses.

Sunshine Online Reading

During our reading rotation we get the chance to go on Sunshine online to read other books and do activities that are suited to our reading level.

Why do you like reading online? "because It helps with my reading" Tsung Wai

Big Book Writing Response

We read the big book Shoo Fly. Here is my writing about the book.

Tsung Wai " It was funny writing this story and I used my mouth to help me sound out my tricky words."

ICT Tagul - Word Cloud

Ratty Tatty cat went meowed and howled. Then he went on a car. 

At Elm Park School we have buddy classes, where a junior class is buddied up with a senior class. Room 5’s buddy class is Room 24 with Miss Hughes.

Room 5 was fortunate to have their buddy class help them do a word cloud on the laptop called Tagul.

With the help of our buddy class we were able to come up with our own word cloud that was related to the Big book Ratty Tatty Cat.

Check out what I wrote and designed.
Tsung Wai " I was having fun and I used my story. My friend in room 24 helped me write my sentence about Ratty Tatty Cat. I picked one of the two cats"

Independent Writing

In Room 5 we are learning to write independently. 

Look what I can do all by myself.

Writing Numbers

In room 5 we have been learning to write the numbers around the right way look what I can do.

I Am Swimming

Here I am learning to float with the board.

What Makes A Good Reader?

What Makes A Good Reader?

Tsung Wai says: "Not cutting the pages, flip the pages nicely, not ripping it off, look at the words, look at the pictures so you know what to read".
