PE learning.

 WALT- dribble a basket ball and a small ball. 

WALT- add photos to our blog posts. 


When we did PE today we had to dribble the ball to the person on the other side. We had to stay between 2 white lines, we had to use one hand then we had to use both of our hands. We also tried to put it under our leg too!






We liked that we go to dribble the ball and pass the ball to other people. We liked using the little balls and dribbling them. 
Next time we want to try and play a game of basket ball.

Have you ever played basketball?

Beebots

 WALT- code Beebots 

We used direction cards to show what we were going to do. We pushed the up, down, left and right buttons to make the Beebots move around on the mats. We had to pick a place on the mat that we wanted them to go to. We have to leave the Beebots on the mat when we are using them. We had to make sure that they don't go off the mat when we code them. We always have to remember to press the X button to clear the Beebots code. 










We like using the Beebots because they move around. We like coding them and watching them move around on the mats. We like it when they stop. 


Do you like the idea of Beebots?

Would you want to code a Beebot?

Do you have Beebots at your school? How do you use them?

We made play dough.

 WALT: follow instructions.


We watched a video about how to make play dough on youtube. We then made a list of all the things we needed to make it. We got all the ingredients that we needed and we mixed them together to make the play dough. We added food colouring to change the colour. 


This is what you need to make our play dough:

- 1 cup of flour

- 1/2 a cup of salt

- 1/2 a cup of water

- Food colouring

You will need a bowl and something to mix with.

Add all the ingredients together and mix until it makes a dough. 










We liked that we got to mix the dye into the play dough, playing with it at home, seeing the colours come together, squishing the play dough and playing with it at the end.
Next time we want to make more colours, make shapes out of the play dough and make even more of it. 

 Do you like our play dough?

Would you like to make this play dough?

Mixing Colours.

 WALT- create art using shaving cream and food colouring. 


What you need:

1. Shaving Cream

2. Food Colouring- green, blue and red

3. Popsicle stick to mix 

4. Paper

5. Tissues

6. Ruler

7. A tray


Put the shaving cream into the tray. Add the food colouring to the foam, spread it out. Mix the colours into the foam. Get your paper and dip it into the shaving foam. Lightly tap the paper so it touches the colours. Carefully take the paper out of the tray. Scrap the rest of the shaving foam off and put your paper some where to dry. 

This is how it went: 









Our favourite part was scraping the extra foam off the paper, cutting out our shapes or pictures, putting the dye into the foam and mixing it, pulling the paper out of the foam. We liked everything!!!
Next time we want to put it in a picture frame, use different colours, use more colours to make it colourful and draw different things. 

Would you want to make this art?

Taonga and Koru camp

 Last week on Thursday and Friday we went to camp. Our camp was at Lonsdale park. Lonsdale had a playground, flying fox, bunk beds, sports gear to play bat down, cabins, a wobbly bridge, water slide and a big kitchen.

We loved camp because we got to go on the water slide, we got to go to the beach to swim and use the kayaks!
