A Visit from Ted and the Rainbow Fish





This is our last week for Term 3 and we are all looking forward to the holidays. Jordan bought his dog, Ted to visit in News Time on Wednesday. Ted is a Highland Terrier and is four years old. He has just had a hair cut and he was very well behaved when he let the children pat him.

This week we finished our Friends Program where we have been learning about friendship skills. The class listened to the story about the Rainbow Fish and we made brightly decorated scales. We were only allowed to keep one scale and we had to share our other scales with classmates. There was such great sharing in our classroom!
Happy Holidays everyone!!!

Plant Experiment and Fathers Day

This week in 2BP we started a Science Experiment. Working in small groups we planted some Mung Bean seeds on a bed of cotton wool and placed them around the classroom. Each group chose one variable to change - either the amount of water, food or sunlight. All other variables were kept the same and this makes it a 'fair test'. We have predicted what we think each of the containers will look like in 14 days time and we start collecting data on Monday. We can't wait to see what happens!!!

2BP would like to wish all Dad's a very Happy Fathers Day on Sunday. We hope you like the card and bookmark we made in class.
