Kindness begins with me...

-
In Parerā we work extremely hard to uphold our St Albans School Values. They help us to be the best we can be in our work, play and in our relationships with others. One of the ways we can show our values is by being kind to others. This week we celebrated completing our '100 acts of kindness' chart by making kindness cookies together. Cara made us all medals with this beautiful quote:

When you are kind to others, 
it not only changes you,
it changes the world.
Harold Kusher

I am very proud of the kind and caring manner in which all the children in Parerā 5 treat each other. We know that, 'KINDNESS BEGINS WITH ME!'

Today during our Inquiry-based play, we explored a programmable robot called Codey the Caterpillar. Each segment of its body had a different function such as 'play music', 'turn left' and 'flash lights'. By joining the segments in different sequences we could program Codey to do all sorts of different things. This was a great way for us to learn about directions - particularly telling left from right!

G G G...Ghost!

Today we learned about the letter/sound 'g'. Cara put vinegar in a bottle and then attached a balloon filled with baking soda over the neck of the bottle. When the vinegar and baking soda mixed it caused a chemical reaction and carbon dioxide gas was produced. This caused the balloon to inflate. The balloon looked like a scary ghost! After our experiment, we drew diagrams and wrote about the balloon ghost in our writing books. Before completing the experiment, lots of the children predicted that the balloon would explode and Shanaya thought we would have to spend the rest of the day cleaning up the classroom! Although the reaction was exciting, luckily it wasn't quite that dramatic! What fun we have at writing time.
