Thursday Week 2

What a busy week we have had! Our class goal is to get our 'It's all about Us!' booklets completed and our holiday artwork on the walls by the end of school tomorrow. Room 10 have been showing me what amazing students they are and how cooperatively they can work together.
Today everyone was working hard to write a story all about an animal they know really well. We did our 'stand up, hands up, pair up' routine to get our ideas flowing about what kind of animal it was, what it's name is, what it likes to do and what it looks like. Then we brainstormed on paper before writing our stories.  I was absolutely stunned that students so young could write so well. Fantastic efforts by everyone!

Soon some of those stories will appear here or on our podcast blog. It's the same one Room 10 used last year to win first prize in a national school website competition.
