This week we had a surprise visitor…Mrs Cornelius came and and put up the water cycle mural. The mural showed the different stages in the water cycle: collection, evaporation, condensation and precipitation. Can you point to the different stages on the picture? Click on the picture to enlarge it.
In reading we explored the use of the mimio with a blend activity. One of the reading groups drew a picture for each blend. Can you guess what the children have drawn? Click on the image to enlarge.
We have been observing our terrariums closely this week and discussing how they show the water cycle. Click on the image below to read how they show the water cycle.
On Friday the children took the terrariums home to share with their families. But before they took them home, each child took a photo of their terrarium with the class digital camera. We also talked about how to focus the picture before we pushed the shutter right down. These are the photos the children took......Can you see the condensation?

We have thought of other things that we could draw for the blend 'br'.
ReplyDeleteMax thought of broom, Luke thought of bracket, Georgia thought of bright, Jaz thought of breakfast and Nathan thought of brakes.
I learnt that we have to push the button half way down. When the green light stops blinking, it is focused. Then I can push the button right down.
ReplyDeleteI learnt all the Blends on the Mimio.
ReplyDeleteIt looks like you did a good job at making the Terrariums.
