Pizza Face - Italy and Shared book Focus

This week we have been learning about Italy and the Italian culture.  We have also had a shared book called 'Pizza Face'.  We have loved this book and learning about how Italians are famous for their Pizza's.  We wanted to try making pizza's for ourselves.  We had lots of fun together, and they were delicious too!

Greedy Cat Reading Work

Today the Boogie Boarders were using Explain Everything to help them learn.  Check out their amazing work that they wanted to share with everyone.

What am I?

This week in class we have had a shared  book called Tails and Claws.  It gives you clues about an animal and then it tells you what it is.  So in writing we have been doing something similar. 

Everyone has created some fantastic work.  The focus has been on adding adjectives to add even more detail to our work.  Some of us have moved onto publishing because they were so fantastic.  

Initially we published some for our walls.  

Then some of us decided to publish using explain everything.  When we published on explain everything we decided that we wanted to use 2 different slides.  One for our clues and one for our answer to make our work more interesting for people watching it.  When we had put all the writing in, we recorded ourselves.  The finished work is what we are most proud of.  You can see a few examples below the pictures of our initial slide set up.

Watch out for more examples coming VERY SOON!!!

Teddy bear picnic photos

These photos are tooooooooo cute not to share.  

Here is a video we created of our Teddy Bears Picnic.

We are starting to learn about making movies to help us share our learning.  Here Mrs G was showing us how to take short videos of different things, to make our movies more interesting.  We used Long shots, Medium shots and Close ups.  We liked helping to create this movie because the app we used played music as we were recorded.

We're going on a bear hunt

Cash did a fantastic job of his reading response today.  It was too cute not to share!  Today's task was about punctuation.  Feel free to ask your child at home about these.
