Here are a few more shots of us over the term working together to solve some maths tasks.
We have to make sure we are all doing our part in our group.

In this one, we were working out how many students were year 3 and how many were year 4, from 4 teams.

Some serious thinkers here.

Everyone working together.

And here too.
 During this activity, we had to read the question very carefully.  It was pretty tricky so we haven't finished it yet.
   It helps if we follow the C.U.B.E.S . process of problem solving.

                                                 C - circle the numbers
                                                 U - underline the question
                                                 B - box the important words
                                                 E - evaluate (work out) which strategy is best
                                                 S - solve the problem

Making sure everyone is listening.

Each Monday of this term we have a session of PE with Sophie from Kelly Sports.
This day our focus was dodging.
At the end of this session, we played two different versions of dodgeball. We certainly got our hearts pumping!









As part of our science unit 'Kitchen Chemistry' we have been learning about the 3 states of matter.
Today we changed a liquid to a solid, by freezing and....
                                       
                                                       WE MADE ICE CREAM




We started to wonder what would happen if we used other liquids. Could we use flavoured milk and make flavoured ice cream? What would happen if we used orange juice? Some of us don't like milk, so could we use soy milk?
 We decided to try it out..... and guess what??

     



                                                                 They were good!
