Today we followed the P.E.O.E process when completing an experiment taught by Keisha.

Boston the fish needs a new home.

If you and your family would like to adopt this cheeky white and red goldfish then please let Whaea Scarlett know ASAP.  Boston likes to eat a lot and this has resulted in him gaining substantial weight. He is now bullying the other little fish in the tank. He has even bitten off one of their tails. However he is a very cool fish ready for a new home.

Thanks,

Whaea Scarlett

Home Learning

As a class of self directed investigators, on Tuesday next week I invite all Room 20 learners to come to school with a safe experiment to share with the class. Please bring all the necessary equipment for the experiment you will need. 

Looking forward to learning from you.

I Wish Poems


Last week Room 20 wrote some amazing 'I wish Poems'. Here are a couple to share.

I Wish 
I wish I had a dog that can take me where I want to go
I wish I had a big birthday cake to share with my friends
I wish I had a playground as big as a two story house
I wish I had 1000 toys
I wish I had a magic friend
I wish I had a lion as a pet
I wish I had a flying reindeer
I wish I had a magic wand to make all my wishes come true. 
Skye-Loren

I Wish 
I wish I had a pet dolphin
I wish I had a pet bird
I wish I had a flower
I wish I had a flying dragon
I wish I had a magic wand to make all my wishes come true.
