Wow Thinking!!!!

This morning Room 2 read the poem "Tree's". We noticed the poem had paragraphs - Mrs McEwen told us the paragraphs in a poem are called stanzas.  We decided to do some critical thinking about stanzas.

Sarah thought it would be a good idea to compare stanzas and paragraphs so we understand more about them. We thought we would use white and blue hat thinking to do this.

Joseph said a venn diagram would be a good graphic organiser to use because we can see things that are the same and things that are different. Mrs McEwen agreed this "it is a great way to compare and contrast"

Welcome Back !!

Sadly we are no longer Team 6, and haven't been for a whole term now. You will now find us in Room 2. We have been very busy beavers learning all about sound. Next week we will be finishing the term off by making a set of musical instruments we have designed using our new found scientific and technological knowledge.

Watch this space to see how we go!!

Mrs McEwen.
