Exploring word sounds for Spelling

This week we looked at words that have the "ch" sound but don't have the letters "c" and "h" in them. We created a Jamboard to record our thoughts. We spent about 15 minutes adding our words during one of Google Meet sessions. Students added new words as they though of them over the week. On Day 2, we revisted the Jamboard to check the list by "agreeing" or "disagreeing". After this process, some students chose to remove their words, some chose to keep them and others added new words based on their new understandings. Below is a screenshot of one of our Jamboard pages. Ka pai Room 21 for your contribution and participation. I am very proud that you are comfortable to take risks by sharing your thoughts. I am also really proud that we could question each other in a respectful and value adding manner. I love being part of your class!

Problem Solving and Building things

One of our tasks for EOTC Week was to set a building goal, work as a team to problem solve to achieve our building goals. We also spent some time problem solving as individuals. Miss Laxa set 4 tasks based on a television show from both the Philippines and USA. One task was to balance a can on it's side by altering the water levels. Other tasks include catching ping pong balls in cups, building a domino style track using CD cases and directing a balloon using only an air pump.

Swimming

We were lucky enough to receive professional swimming lessons by qualified swimming instructors. We spent 2 weeks learning many swimming skills. This will be followed up by another 2 weeks of lessons later in the year.
