Understanding Compare & Contrast in Reading

This presentation looks at one of our reading strategies for Term 3.

Cross Country

19\7\12 There is under 5 weeks until the year 5 and 6 cross country. The training is underway. The track is on grass, mud and gravel. Crossing past the Stardome Observetory, then up to the junction, cutting off down to the right and up and across the ridge, then down to complete the final loop. I wonder who will win this year!

Trash to fashion

In term 2, year 5&6 traveled to the Corbin Estate Arts Centre. We learnt how to be sustainable by re-using (or up-cycling) old materials to make cool outfits. We also watched a video of the finalists from this year and their winning outfits. We saw a lot of different outfit materials varying from cans to dishwashers, from stage lighting gel to flax. This term we are going to make our own outfits out of materials we have collected from home. By lollipoplover
