Year One Green

with Mrs Gillians

Week 6, Term 4

November17

Today we went on an excursion to the State Theatre to watch a stage show called My Robot. It was about a girl called Orphelia and how she responds with courage and resourcefulness to challenging times. Olivetti, the robot, captivated us and we loved all the light and sound affects. It was an awesome show!

Term 4, Week 3

October25

In Health, this term we will be learning lots about fire, water and cyber safety. We have already learned about good and bad fires, how fires can start and today we even investigated what a smoke alarm is and it’s purpose. We were also very lucky to have Mr Pez come in and talk to us about fires. We were able to ask questions, watch awesome videos and even try out some fire equipment. Thank you Mr Pez for an awesome afternoon.

Term Three, Week 6

August23

This term, in writing, we have been learning how to write a narrative story, using the fairytale The Three Billy Goats Gruff. We have been very creative and been given a variety of activities to choose from. These include a making words game, putting words in alphabetical order, giving the troll a makeover, designing a sign warning people of the troll on the bridge, comparing and contrasting the characters and using adjectives to make nouns sound interesting.

One of our favourite activities, though, has been learning how to read a play of The Three Billy Goats Gruff. It was tricky following the script to begin with, but now we are great. We love using our voices and dressing up. It has been so much fun!

Week 2, Term 3

July28

It”s week two and we have been very busy bees. In art we are investigating how lines and shapes influence Art. We have been introduced to an artist named Paul Klee and created super Mondrian styled butterflies. In math, today, we did an investigation in making numbers. In pairs we were given 8 beads each to put on abacus. We had to work out how many numbers, using the tens and ones values, we could make. We did a great job!

Term Two, Week 8

June12

Last Wednesday we went on an excursion to the Western Australian Art Gallery. At the Art Gallery we went to the art room after viewing a big painting that focused on colours and shapes. Then we completed pictures that are based on warm and cool colours and are now on display in the classroom. After a short break we split into groups and toured the gallery with a guide. Each group looked at different paintings and discussed how each artist used colours.

The following day we wrote a recount based on our excursion. These recounts are now also on display in the classroom. It was an awesome day!

Term 2, week 2

May7

Each class were given the opportunity to participate in Global Design Day. In our class we investigated structures and their foundations. We looked at famous structures around the globe and with a partner designed our own. The challenge was to create a solid structure using only 15 straws and a small blob of blu-tac. We did a great job and hope you enjoy our creations.

Term One, Week 9

March31

Today was a very busy day. First we had our assembly. We had a great time and Mrs Gillians said we were awesome. We loved that our mums and dads came to watch.

After recess we made a book based on the first Easter. We sequenced the pictures in the correct order and then in small groups retold the story using our picture book. We were able to add lots of detail.

Then we drew an Easter egg on on A3 piece of paper. We had 10 minutes to draw an egg and colour it. Then Mrs Gillians gave us a problem to solve. We needed to investigate and find out who in the class had the tallest egg. To do this we knew we had to use the measurement of length. We used blocks and started at one edge. We also knew that we measure in a straight line and include no gaps. Lilly and Dante had the tallest eggs. It was a fun investigation to do!

We can measure length lots of different ways. Today we cut a piece of streamer about the length of our arm. Then we had to find four things that together, are the same length as the streamer. We used lots of different items in the classroom. Some of us found this VERY tricky!
