Our Invention

Jasmine and Rosie have made this happy plate plate to overcome your sadness. When your sad, your sad, and no one likes to be sad so we invented… The Happy Plate!

Every human needs to be happy because happiness is so important that it's extremely vital to our own goals in life. Happiness also can help us achieve many personal ambitions and goals. Also, by being happy, we have the potential to change many other lives just by being ourselves. Also Scientific evidence suggests that being happy may have major benefits for your health. For starters, being happy promotes a healthy lifestyle. It may also help combat stress, boost your immune system, protect your heart and reduce pain. What's more, it may even increase your life expectancy.

ARTS WEEK

Last week, it was week 7 and…. ARTS WEEK! In week 7 we did multiple

things that got to do with art. This included, Dance, Drama, Music and

Visual Arts. We had an art rotation where the year 6 teachers covered an

area of art and each class would do fun activities with that specific teacher.

Mrs Swan and Mrs Cometti did Dance whilst Mr Mac and Mrs Lewis

covered Drama. Each teacher did different activities with us, children.

Mrs Swan did Sport related 8 beat dances, by making sport actions into

dance movements.

Mrs Cometti taught how to make a verb/noun into a dance movement.

She also taught us not to touch other people whilst dancing. We learned

this by playing a fun game called ‘City Square.’

With Mr Mac we played Family Portraits and made short plays to share

with the class.

Mrs Lewis’s activities included, how to act like an object, A fun short

little red riding hood play and making funny advertisements and

performing them in front of the class.

And to make it even better, on Friday we had mufti day. We could dress up

as anyone who had something to do with art. People dressed up as the

Mona Lisa, Painters, Mimes, Dancers, Fashion Designers and more!

Mrs Swan dressed up as her favourite singer named Madonna.

Overall, Room 7 absolutely enjoyed arts week. We can’t wait for the

art exhibition coming up! We will be presenting…. Wonderful Wired Critters………………

From the best class in the school ! :)

Chocolate Chips Cookies

Making Chocolate chip Cookies

Today we made chocolate chip cookies.

First we preheated the oven to 180 degrees .

Then we laied down some baking paper on the oven tray.

Third we poured the cookie mixture in a big bowl.

Afterwards we scooped a third of a cup of butter and

dropped it in the bowl.

First we cracked a giant egg and mixed it all

together with no water or milk.

When it was all gooey and smooth,

Mrs V(our helper) then mixed the mixture

with her hands.

After we just took a lump if the cooking batter

a rolled it into a ball and dropped it onto the oven tray.

Then very carefully Mrs V slid it into the heated oven.

We baked it for about 15-20 minutes then

took it out to look at it.

Each of us quickly took a big bite out of it to see

what it tasted like. It was so delicious.

Some of us thought it tasted a bit like cereal.

The finished product was so good that

everyone in our class loved it.

Let’s be friends

Making new friends can definitely be scary. But, it doesn't have to be! Other children want to make new friends too, just like you.

Be Friendly

Go to class with a smile on your face and try to talk to as many people as possible. 

Introduce Yourself

If you see someone you want to be friends with, make the first move and say hi!
