October 15

Today in French we discussed our perfect day and what it might look like. We also shared what we did over the weekend

We read the book 'Arnie the Doughnut' about a niave little doughnut and his journey home from the bakery. We also read 'The Hula-Hoopin' Queen ' a story of a hula-hooping obsessed young girl called  Kameeka who owns up to her own mistakes to try and make things better. It is a tale of morality, community and sense of duty.

We went to library. Students who forgot their library books are reminded to bring them in as soon as possible.

We received a flyer about the school Halloween part on Friday 25 October. Tickets are $5.

In science we discussed how scientists can categorize rocks by lustre, colour and hardness. We went on to discuss scientific theories. We learnt that scientists use information available to them to form theories but that these theories are subject to change as scientific understanding advances. One such theory we looked at was a theory of how our moon was formed and how scientists are studying moon rock to give us clues of events over 4 billion years ago.

Ask me : How do you think the moon was formed? What would your perfect day look like?
