Sharing our stories in different ways

Today we had the choice between creating a real story or an imaginative one that involved swimming at school.

We chose to either use Clicker Docs or DoodleCast on the iPads and collaborated with others.

Here's Hailey and Isla listening back to their story...

  

Then they reflected on how they went.  They decided that they did a good job of remembering some important information and also talking and drawing at once.  They also decided the their next step is to ensure they don't talk over each other.  

What do you think?

Beatrice, Keira, Lily and Madi worked together to create this story - they're still having a think about their reflection.  What do you think they did well?

Look at all this awesome thinking, collaboration and reflection!!

Performing "The Crab Hunt"

What we think we did well:

• "Saying it loud" - Brodie
• "We did well reading all the words 'till the end" - Joshua B.
• "We spoke clearly and we read all of the words good" - Hailey

Our next steps are:

• "Brodie and Aaron should not have said 'Matt'" - Lily N.
• "Speak a little bit more louder" - Brodie
• "The next time, we could wriggle a little bit less" - Hailey
• "Maybe next time we won't play with our costumes" - Lily N.
• "Next time we shouldn't move, we should stay still" - Brodie

Mrs Chant wonders...

Could you think of a way to move like your characters?  For example, when your character looks under a rock, what could you do with your body?  We call this acting.

Let's have a try...

How do you think we did?

The concept of change

During concept learning we experimented with changing our voices and actions to suit the characters in the "three billy goats gruff."

Was it easy to change your voice to be in character?... at AnswerGarden.ch.

Break Through 28th February Animal and Art Groups

We looked and found out how to use pastels to create patterns.

Experimented with different designs.

We went to the library to research patterns.

We drew inspiration from animal patterns and used them to create our own.

Numeracy

Today for our warm up we ordered numbers to 20.

Then we decorated our cakes on our whiteboards with m&m's and beans. We were leaning how to add two sets of materials together.

Can you remember how many m&m's were on your cake?
 

Reading in hub 5 and 6. Can you remember what learning helped you?

Hub 1 learning about how to get ready in the morning

Some of our learners thought it might be useful, to make a movie for new learners to Stonefields School, about how to get ready in the morning before school.

Measurement with Mrs Jackson

This morning at the start of our Marvellous Maths Day we talked about our Learner Quality of being Determined.

We did some great thinking about Jack and the Beanstalk. What is taller than and shorter than.

We measured who was taller and shorter than.

Some of us are the same size too.

We measured ourselves.

We made tall beanstalks.

We had to be determined.
