Throwing Fun!
Room 7 had so much fun with Team Energise today practising how to throw. We practise how we stand, and that we need to point our hand to where we want to throw. After practising these things we then got to play throw and catch with a buddy. It was great fun!

Fairy Tales Fun
Room 7 enjoyed the fairy tale Goldilocks and the three bears so much that they decided to write their own versions. They then prepared their own storyboards of the three most popular 'new' versions to turn into a play. One group wanted to use play dough or plastine to make the characters come to life.
Here are some photos of our progress so far. Keep checking in to see more progress!

Frisky Fish Cinquain Poems
Room 7 recently experimented with cellophane fish to see what would happen when we did different things with the fish such as put it on a hard, cold surface, hold it in our hand or put it on a damp paper towel.
We then wrote a cinquain poem about our fish. We needed to know what a verb and an adjective was in order to write a cinquain poem.
What do you think happened to the fish?

Andy Warhol Inspired Art
Room 7 explored how the artist Andy Warhol used colour in creative, colourful and unexpected ways. We thought we would give it a go too!
