Term Two is upon us already. I trust you have all had an enjoyable break from school and hope you come back tomorrow really ready to learn. We have an exciting term ahead with a strong focus on Science. We will be visit the Science Road Show in Week Nine at MOTAT and between now and then there will be heaps of science experiments and ‘hands on’ activities to explore scientific ideas. You will be working on your Science Fair Project for the first five weeks of term. Maybe you have had a think about your project and have already come up with some ideas! Don’t worry if you haven’t because Week One is all about exploring and sharing ideas and everyone will have a great topic by the end of the week. Guaranteed!
I emailed Bean Buchanan about coming to talk to you about his art work. Unfortunately he is busy making a film at the moment so can’t come to see us. However, I have managed to dig up some interesting bits and pieces about him, and we will explore his techniques and approaches and make our own art work hessian! A great piece for the art exhibition next term.
There will be a Blog Award this term. The award will go to the student(s) who show a strong commitment to developing an educational blog. I will talk to you about the criteria during week one.
…….enough chatter for now. I will put a more informative classroom programme up early in the week for parents and families. I am looking forward to catching up tomorrow and can’t wait to see our baby mice! Here is a You Tube video of a science fair in the USA.
