Puppet Discovery

Today we made puppets in Discovery Time. The puppets were funny so we were using our Habit of Mind, That's Funny! We also used Stop and Think because stopped and thought about what we wanted to make before we started. Have a look and read about what some of us did during Discovery below:

Koru Patterns

Today we made Koru patterns. They look like waves or plants. Some are skinny and some are thin. First we used a pen to draw the pattern. We looked at the paper so we could see what to do. There was already three different Koru patterns on the page. Then we coloured it in neatly, with no white spots and we made sure it was dark. Have a look at some of the patterns we did:

Patterns!

Today, Mr Davidson asked us to make a pattern using anything we could find in the classroom.  We used Lego, puzzles, lids, rocks and shells, numicon shapes and Bee Bots. Can you make a pattern yourself?

Have a look at the patterns we made. Can you figure out what the pattern is?

Science in a Van!

Today at school in the hall there was a lady and a man doing a science show for us. The big ball and the little ball were on top of each other. When they bounced the power from the big ball went to the small ball and it bounced high. Thank you Nari for taking the video:


The man played with the whip. He told us that end of the whip makes it loud. It goes really fast and that makes the sound.


Here is a Pic Collage we made. Mr Davidson took the pictures and then we told him what to write:


When we went to morning tea and the bell rang we went to the hall again and the man blew some bubbles for the Busy Bees and the Fledglings.
