Week 6

Swimming sports, Inquiry and Art!
What a creative week we have had in Room 8...
On Tuesday we all took part in the Year 3 and 4 Swimming Sports at Eastbourne pool. Before we started some of us were nervous, some of us were excited. Afterward we felt great because we had given it a go and we had heaps of fun at the same time!
This week for Inquiry we have set up some experiments to look at what plants need to grow. For our whole class experiment we have set up two plants on the window sill: one with water and one without, we also set up two plants in a dark place: one with water and one without. What do you think we are testing? Take a look at our photos to see what we have been doing...
On Thursday we walked over to the Year 7 and 8 side of the school to see our buddies in Room 21. We drew portraits of our buddy's face and they drew ours, the aim was to keep our pencil off the paper at all. Wow that was hard but we drew some really interesting and crazy portraits. Next week we will be using pastels to make them bright and colourful so we can have our Room 21 buddy portraits hanging in our classroom.
Have a fantastic weekend Room 8!
