First Eucharist Preparation

As we prepare to celebrate Eucharist, we have been learning about the Parts of the Mass as well as the special clothing and items we see at Mass.

We noticed a special saying as we entered the church. 

Before I go to Mass..... I think about God. 

When I'm at Mass....... I speak to God. 

 After Mass I speak to others.

Birthday celebration with balloons.

We celebrated Rohan's birthday on our extra Sport day. 

We used the balloons that he shared with us.

School in days gone by. 

Lots of members of our grade are interested in finding out about SCHOOL in days gone by. 

They have posed lots of interesting questions such as: 

What games did they play at school?

Did they wear uniforms?

Why did they sit at desks?

What did the schools look like?

Ask your parents and friends about the desks they used at school. Who knows what these coloured , wooden blocks are?

Records, tapes and more......

We are learning  about  "Changes through Time"in our Inquiry Unit. 

Ava brought in vinyl records and tapes to share with us. We listened  to tapes from the 1980's.... Billy Joel, KISS....   Mrs M. reflected on days gone by.....disco dancing and ABBA. 

Who has  a record player hiding in their cupboard? Remember the song "Video Killed the Radio Star" ?
What do you use to listen to your favorite songs? 

• Ask your family members to tell you the name of their favorite songs, bands and singers. 
• Have a think about the different ways we can access and listen to music in 2015. 

Maths fun in 3M

We are using the four processes to play a number game.

Has your child told you about Mrs M's game using cards and dice ? It's called "Three In a Row"?
