SOUND EVALUATION
All term the children in Room 18 have been learning about sound. What makes sound, how we can recognise sound, interesting facts about sound. Our Global Learning Intention was " to investigate" and that is what we have done! Here is some fantastic work as a quick hour evaluation, using kidpix, to let their teacher (who has been out of the classroom a lot!) know what they now know or have found interesting. Well done Room 18. Great work.

Habits of Mind
The children have been busy learning how to write their own posts, with a new login! Each blog group has been given challenges over the last few weeks - so please stick with us as we experiment.
I recently found a good movie about the Habits of Mind and what it means. I thought it would be useful for parents to view so they have a deeper understanding of what we are trying to achieve in the classroom with the children , and so as parents you are more aware of what the children mean. Please watch and talk to your children about the Habits they use frequently within the classroom. Please also give us some feedback on how useful you found it.

2. Elastic bands and rulers are sources of sound
3. Often we can't see vibrations because they are so fast but we can still hear the sounds

We learnt that: incetcs make a buzzing sound beacause their wings are beating very fast.Did you know that the harder you hit something the louder it is and the louder the noise and the longer it lasts the more dangerous it is for your ears.Also we can mesaure sound waves by counting the number of vibrations that occur per second.If somting is going slow makes a deeper sound and if something is going quikly then it will make a high pitched noise.
sound by kiana and grace
we are lerning about sound
-sound gets quiter the ferther you move away from the source. (stero)
-sound waves get louder as it travels away from the source
-the longer the string,the lower pitch.
-a high frequecys a higher pitch.
-sound travels faster through a vacum.
-sound gets quiter the ferther you move away from the source. (stero)

1.Sound can go through diffrent matireals. 2.There is no sound in space because of the vacum. 3.Vibrations can travel through air. 4.sound can get quiter the futher away it goes. 5.the faster the vibration goes make higher sound.

today we learnt
vibrations travel thew air.
sound travels thew diffrent merterls.
you can't hear stuff in space.
the number of vibrations is called the frequency.
when a peace of sting is vibrating you can change the pitch by changing the length.

Today the HAJ company knew that Vacuum means that their is no sound in space. Things that vibrate moves, backwards and then forwards quickly. Insects make a loud buzzing sound because their wings flap quickly. Also sound can be hear outside.

Should any of you check the blog at the weekend it would be very handy if you could bring an empty plastic bottle (like a lemonade bottle or a milk one)to school. It needs to be either a 1.5 l or a 2 l one.

our zoo letters
To whom it may concern,
Room 18 have been discussing Burma and Kashin the elephant and it has come to my attention,why do we have zoos?
I believe that Animals should be kept in zoos because it is easier to study them in zoos instead of having to go overseas to find out about Animals. Also more and more people are wanting to find out about animals and the world around them which is important because it makes us want to protect animals and be friends with them. Another point is that scientists are having to go overseas just to find out about
animals.I think thats a waste of money. Would you waste your money?
Next animals should be kept in zoos because zoos and wildlife parks are places were we can keep animals that are in trouble can stay safe and not become extinct and they may be the last place for our earths wild species.
Finally animals should stay in zoos because if there in the wild they may be shot and die. Also because zoos give human beings the chance to see animals up close.
In conclusion I think that animals should stay in zoos because they may be the last place for earths wild species so they wont become extinct and because they give humans the chance to see animals up close. If you want your future children to be able to learn about animals and care for them then we need to have zoos.
Yours sincerely
Chelsea Keith.
To whom it may concern.
Room 18 have been talking about whether or not we should have zoos. Here is my opinion.
In my view animals should be allowed to come to zoos because some animals get hunted. Elephants get hunted for ivory tusks while other animals get hunted for hide and some animals get extinct because of this.
Another thing is that if an animal in the wild gets hurt it relies on passing humans to help but in zoos animals get immediate help.
Also some animals are endangered and if they are in the wild they will go from being endangered to extinct.
Animals are very important to peoples education and to help animals in the wild we need to know more. We don’t ant to go all the way around the world to study so we go to the zoo.
I think we need to have zoos because the animals are important to the world the future. If the animal race dies out the world will be a dark ,plane, bitter place to live now and for the future generation.
Yours sincerely

We have finished our Paul Jennings story.
Using one tool persuade others that they should or should not read the story. You will need to work with your group to come up with how you are going to do this, the tool you are going to use, and what your argument needs to have in it.
Some suggestions:
Wordle, Vocaroo, Voice Thread, Kidpix, writing onto the blog, other ways that you can think of!
You may also want to add in some photos as well. You will need to use the imac for that or you can goggle some from the Paul Jennings site.
Have fun

Tim is a strong boy. Tim’s hair is as dark as a moonless night because it’s dark and unseen. He is as brave as Alexandra the Great. His clothes are warm like the blazing fire because his clothes are nearly overheated. His eyes are bright like a glowing light bulb. Tim’s teeth are bright like a lantern because his teeth are clean. His legs are thick like a muscular giant. Tim is a boy who lives with is little sister, 1 dog, 1 cat and dad and a mum. Tim likes to run fast around the block.

Bad Jelly is as ugly as a hideous mole. She is as magic as a magic fairy. Her hair is hideous as jellyfish legs. Bad Jelly’s clothes are black, wet and gross. She smells like a green muddy duck pond. She eats little children for breakfast. I like Bad Jelly because she is evil. She loves to make magic.

Happy holidays!
Hello everyone,
I hope you all are having a great holiday and not too many of you have been sick! Mrs Waterland has been very sick :( but is feeling a lot better now.
I am going to put on a few You Tube items - one is for fun (I wonder if you can work out which one it is and if you can do the dance to show in class??) The other two items are for our unit around Persuasive writing - Arguments. Have a look at them and see if you can work out what they are trying to persuade you to do? If you can leave a comment - remember to do it just like at school, but hitting the comment button and leaving it as anno. I will get the email and will post it for you.
Looking forward to next week. Enjoy the rest of your holidays - have a good break and be ready to share when you get back. Think about your passion - what are your really passionate about? (I think you would probably say for Mrs Waterland it would be biking/running and her class of course!)

Our first movie
We have been reading Bad Jelly the Witch and working on character descriptions. We had to create, using kidpix, a character from the story, through only hearing the story (we didn't know what the characters looked like!) This was to see how well the author used descriptive language throughout. We also had to use adjectives to describe our character. Next we decided to put it into a movie format. Mrs Waterland, Tessa and Chelsea worked on it - it was new learning for everyone. This is our creation. We are pretty pleased with our first effort!
