Term 1 Week 3

Recycling in Room 16

Each day in Room 16 we look through our lunch boxes to see if we have anything that can be recycled. We put items into the worm bin, the general recycling bin, paper recycling and soft plastics recycling. Anything that can't be recycled we send home for our landfill rubbish bins.  Mr Barnes has been so impressed with how little rubbish Room 16 has at the end of the day!

We have made a tally chart for three of the different types of recycling so we can use this in maths over the next few weeks.

On Friday one of the children have the job of taking the soft plastic recycling home with them so they can drop it in one of the special bins around our community (usually at the supermarket).

It has been great to see that a few children in Room 16 have no recycling or landfill rubbish at all! Wow!

Term 1 Week 2

Counting who is at school today

Each day after we take the roll we work out how many girls and how many boys are at school today. We then add these up and write the total as a number, word and picture.

Term 1 Week 1

We have spent the first few days getting to know each other and setting goals for this year. We have made some wonderful balloons that show a little about us and our favourite things. During our first writing lesson we set some goals for this year.
