Holiday Challenge

Hi Smarties! How are you getting on with the holiday challenge?
Make sure you record the process of how you constructed your hut! I can not wait to see what awesome hut creations you have come up with.

What Habits of Mind have you used over the holidays? Try to capture a HOM in a photograph. The real challenge is seeing how creative and innovative you can be. Think outside the square!

Mr O'Dowda Day!

What a way to say goodbye and good luck to Mr O'Dowda. We had such fun playing games, eating sausage rolls, playing gladiator and having the best water fight ever!

Hut Day!

Wow! What fun we had on Tuesday constructing our huts. The Habits of Mind that were utilised to solve problems, work with others and have fun was fantastic to see.

It's Mind Boggling!

The Smarties are learning about their brains! Why do we have a brain? What are the different parts of our brain? What jobs do the different parts have? How do we learn? The Smarties are using their brain power to investigate and find out the answers to these questions.

Art Attack!

Art Attack! Have a look at our awesome art that we created this term. We learnt to use pastel techniques to capture a scene from our holiday.

Our Awesome Hut!

We have been learning to write Memorable Memoirs and looked at an exemplar of a memoir that was about building huts. We have many great memories about building huts and the adventures that we have had in our huts. Through our discussion we learnt that one member of our class had never made a hut before. We had a mission! During break we all worked interdependently to construct a hut and a new experience for our class mate. Boy did we have fun!

Welcome!

Hello Smarties! We now have a blog where we can share our learning with others. We can add our thoughts and opinions and give each other feedback! Exciting! Watch this space!
