Swimming
As the long summer has continued we have really been enjoying our daily swimming. The lessons from the students from Nayland College have seen considerable improvements in both the confidence and the ability of the students in the water.
Oral Language
This term I have encouraged each student to prepare a presentation to the class on something about themselves. It could be about the students family, a pet, a skill...
Here are photos showing fantastic presentations from Phoebe and Diego.
Our focus with the presentations is on the presenter having good eye contact with the audience, a clear speaking voice and interesting content. For the audience we are focussing on good listening skills and questioning.
Parachutes
One of the reading groups last week read an instructional text on how to make a parachute. Given the high level of interest in the topic we decided as a group to share the text with the class. Today we read through the instructions and then proceeded to make the parachutes. The students will, be bringing these home to share with you the process involved in making them. Here we are making and flying our parachutes.
