Spring Flowers

Class 20 are enjoying talking about the flowers they are seeing now that Spring has arrived.  Today we wrote about the wonderful flowers in this picture:

Waffle Magic ....

This term Class 20 are learning to "Work Smarter, Not Harder" and are looking at all the equipment in the kitchen that has been designed to make our lives easier.  Today we made waffles in the classroom.  First we unpacked the equipment that we would use and the learners took photographs of this equipment in Explain Everything.  They used their stylus to write the name of the equipment underneath each photo.

After morning tea we made some waffles.  The learners took turns using the measuring equipment and adding ingredients to the mixing bowls, following the recipe.  Class 20 decided that an electric beater made it easier to mix the batter than a whisk.  Arkar said that it was really hard to mix using the whisk.  All the learners agreed that cooking waffles was a lot of fun, but that eating the waffles was the best part!!



After lunch the students took photos of the ingredients, and again added the word underneath each photo.  They then used Explain Everything to create a picture of themselves making the waffles and talked about their pictures.  Here is an example from today's great learning:

Counting People

Today for maths we built houses and put some people inside our houses.  Then we told our friends how many people were inside our house.
