Folk dance

Today Year twos performed folk dance called Windows dance at the Junior Assembly.
We have been learning different cultural folk dances in PE this term.
We danced with frolic and rollick.
I thought you all did tremendously!
Don't you think?

One land many cultures

Our topic for this term is called "One land, many cultures" and we are learning about many different cultures such as countries, languages, food, clothes, music, dance, and so on.

Last week, Room 21 talked about what countries we or our families are from and looked at the flags of these countries.

Miss Joo then printed out all the flags of Room 21 and we coloured them in to learn how flags look all different.

We will also be learning icons of different countries in the next few weeks so please bring some photos to share with the class.

Room 21 is very excited to learn different cultures!

Roman's rockpool study

In the holidays Roman visited rockpool, took photos, and made a rockpool study poster.
He also collected some dead crab shells and shared with Room 21.
Thanks Roman for sharing your wonderful study with us!

Who am I?

This week Room 21 have published the third book!
They are called "Who am I?" and they are riddles.
We used lots of adjectives and similes to describe our sea creatures that live in Rocky shore.
Please come in and guess what our sea creatures are!

Kapai Caleb for your amazing artwork of your book cover!

Finn! I love your pattern in your background! Well done!

Jacey, I love your creative book cover for your riddle story! Kapai!

Miji, well done for your colourful book cover! Kapai!

Keeping rocky shore healthy

One of the learnings we are doing for topic is thinking about how to keep our rocky shore clean and healthy so Room 21 designed posters last week.

We discussed slogans, big and bright pictures which can catch people's eyes easily, and pictures that relate to the slogan we chose.

When we go to rocky shore, we need to remember to leave the creatures in the sea instead of taking them home, pick up the rubbish, and take the rubbish back home if we had picnic.

This week we finished our posters because we had to paint some parts of our posters with water colours.

Well done Blake for listening to Miss Joo how bright colours are important in posters!

Well done Laura for the bright slogans! I could clearly see what your poster is about!

I really like your happy sea creatures in your poster Geena and well done for painting your background carefully!

Environment in Rocky shore

Our topic is environment in rocky shore.
We talked about what environment around us is and environment in rocky shore is.
We also looked at sea creatures who live in rocky shore such as crabs, seaweeds, starfish and so on.
Room 21 children are so excited to learn more about rocky shore!

If you have time, visiting rocky shore would be a good idea too!
