Summarising a text t3 w2

This week we read a text called The Ant  and the Grasshopper . It was a story about a wise ant and a foolish and lazy grasshopper. At the beggining a family of ants where working hard to gather food for winter. In the middle of the story an ant told a grasshopper that he should gather food for winter but the grasshopper didn't listen. At the end of the story it became winter and the ants ate the seeds they gathered in autumn and the grasshopper got hungry the grasshopper asked the ants if he could have some of their food and the ants said no. I believe the authors purpose was to persuade people not to be lazy and foolish. I know this because the grasshopper was lazy and foolish.

Amazing Aquatic Jelly

Aquatic Jelly

Aquatic jelly is very yummy. It is made out of jello and water. It can tastee like blueberries. Other jellys can taste like other things.

 

It can smell like blueberries. Aquatic jelly smells very nice. It can also smell like other things.

 

It feels quite slimy but also quite smooth too. If you squeeze it in your hands, it feels quite slimy. When you first make it feels watery. 

Aquatic jelly sounds wobbly and jiggly when you shake it but it doesn't have much sound. 

You can see through aquatic jelly. When you look at it, it sort of looks slimy but when you feel it, it feels very watery and slimy. 

Aquatic jelly is a very fun and easy thing to make so I think you should make it at home.

Hope you enjoy.

A flying start into Term 2 in Hub Ra!

What a start back to Term 2! On top of our reading, writing and maths programs starting back up, we have a lot of awesome stuff going on!

In term 2 we have 6 break throughs that learners will be involved in. They are sports, 2 zoology groups, construction, learning through Minecraft, and art. Learners were involved in a range of hands on activities on Friday where they had to bring what they knew about their topic and share with their group. We have a great foundation now to get into some deep learning as the term progresses! It's going to be a great deal of fun.

We also started on our new concept of 'I Wonder' this week. This concept is all about thinking about what wonderings we have, and building our learning capacity to solve them. This requires us to know all about asking the right questions, knowing the difference between open and closed questions, and building up our research skills. Looking at key words and effective research strategies will be a big focus this term, as well as using the Stonefields learning process to scaffold us while we do this.

Here's to a great term!
