Book Week

Hi Room 9. If you'd like to post a comment on the book week blog follow the link which is down the right hand side of our blog page.
Please tell me all about what you have been learning about during the rotation.

Telling the Time

Today we spent some time learning how to read analogue clock(the clocks with the numbers and hands).

Remember that the little hand tells us the hour that it has been. The big hand tells us how many minutes past or to the next o'cock time.

Go to the netvibes page to find the activity under the maths tab.

Room 9: Your mission: practice, practice, practice!

Using Google as a search engine.

In Room 9 we are focussing on reading and writing information reports. At a later stage we will gather information to write our own information report.
Today we learnt about how we can use different resources to find the facts we need. We looked at how to use library books, school journals, our school readers and encyclopedias. We are now going to learn about how useful the internet can be to help us find the important facts we need.

We watched a little video about the search engine we know as Google. It was very interesting and amazing how Google works really hard to find information for us.



Room 9: Your Mission.

Using the search example used in the video, (cheetah running speed)write the URL that appears in the first part of writing. Also...if you can ...write the name for the little part of information in the middle. It starts with "S"

Keeping Ourselves Safe-

Today in Room 9 we looked at some situations that would make us feel a certain way. We read out some questions and statements and we had to decide how that situation would make us feel.This is to help us learn to be safe around people and environments.
Room 9 Your Mission: what were the feelings words we discussed and used to describe how we felt. Post a place that you would condider to be safe.
