Report writing

It is only week one and Room 20 have already been working hard on writing reports.  Here is a great report written by Flynn:

Brazil

Introduction
Brazil is a huge country on the eastern side of South America.  In this report you will read about Brazil and its sport, nature, and animals.

Nature
Brazil has the largest swamp in the world!  It also has the famous Amazon rainforest in the northern part of the country.  Brazil also has a varied landscape with mountains, grasslands and coastal areas.

Animals
Because of its varied landscape, Brazil has a greater variety of animals and insects than any other country in the world.  There are more than 100,000 insects, 1,500 fish, and 1,600 bird species.  Many rare animals live in the Brazilian rainforest.

Teach me Tuesday: Guinea Pigs with Caitlyn

This week Caitlyn brought her two guinea pigs in for Teach me Tuesday.  We all got to hold Dozer and Scruffles and learnt some really interesting facts about guinea pigs.  Did you know that they originally came from South America?  They live in many different habitats such as deserts, grasslands and at the edge of forests where they can find lots of vegetation to eat.  Guinea pigs are not actually pigs at all, but are more closely related to rodents such as rats.
Thanks Caitlyn for bringing your pets to school!

Teach me Tuesday

Back by popular demand, Teach me Tuesday has started again in Room 20.  First up was Lucas and Cooper teaching us some soccer skills.  We learnt to trap and pass with the inside of our feet, then practice some goals by aiming for the corner of the posts.  Finally we had a fun game which ended up 0 - 0.  Thanks Lucas and Cooper!

Madi powers the ball to the goal. 

Nice kick Feifei!

Room 20 Skate Club

Room 20 has been chosen to get a skate club up and running at the school.  First the leaders met with Ms Craig to discuss how it could work.  Then we had a meeting with Steve from Onboard skate.  Next it was time to train some leaders about how to train other students at the school.  Here are some photos of the first training session:

Cross Country Courage

In term two we are learning about courage.  Cross country running is a great activity to explore courage as running can hurt, but courage will keep you going to the finish.  Here's some pics of some courageous runners:

Almost there Leon!

Great running Ethan!

Dig it in Leanne!

Hands in the air for the finish girls!
