Clay Modeling

We were very lucky today! Two lovely ladies from the Dowse Art Museum came and helped us make Christmas Decorations out of clay! We loved the feeling of the clay on our hands and are enjoying our final result! We can't wait to be able to put them on our Christmas Tree!

All Saints Mass

We had our class Mass on All Saints today. We had a beautiful time with Father Pat O'Shea and Barbara. Father has just had his 40th Jubilee! Wow! 

We had previously written beautiful prayers of the faithful that we would like to share

Dear Lord,
Help us to follow the Saints example of loving and helping others and following you.
Lord hear us.                                                    

Dear Lord,
Please help us to follow in your footsteps of loving one another and being good role models. Remind us to help others even when its hard. 
Lord hear us.                                                   

Dear Lord,
We pray for those who are sick. Please help them to get getter and to guide them and remind them that you love them.
Lord hear us.                                              

Dear Lord,
Please help us to look after our school community. Help Ms. Buckley and the teachers to be good examples for us. Help us to try even when it gets hard.
Lord hear us                                                    

Dear Lord,
Please guide Father Grealy and Barbara in our parish. Please help them to make good choices and be good role models for our parish.

Lord hear us.                         

After Mass we did Yellow Hat and Black Hat thinking about the positives from Mass and our advice for next time. 


                    

Sharing our Maths Learning

Today we shared our learning with each other. 

In Maths we have been doing Statistics, and going through the statistical enquiry process. We developed a question, collected and sorted data, displayed our findings in a bar and line graph and today we shared our findings with a partner. 






Jorja was helping Christina explain her graphs.
She helped Christina by asking "what did you do on this page?"

News Reports

We are starting to look at News Reports in Room 3. Our theme for the term is 'Story Telling'. So we are telling our story of 'A day in the Life of Room 3' through News Reports. 

We needed to know what a News Report was first. We watched some videos and gave positives and negatives using the Yellow and Black Hats. Here is our favourite one...

Then, our crazy teachers, Mrs Brown and Miss Kirkland did a News Report in front of us. They were very silly and we gave them advice to not act like kids. 

Here are some photos of our 'Yellow and Black Thinking Hats' Feedback

Commonwealth Games Song!

In Term 3, Room 3 learnt about the Commonwealth Games. We watched and rapped this rap each day to start off our writing.
