Year 3's Bake Sale

Wow, what an amazing bake sale we had today. Thank you to the parents/caregivers who helped our students make the most delicious treats, we sold out in record time (even though many of our students were away at zone sports)!! We raised $371. Now we will be looking at our class pet and animal adoption, we will let you know what we decide.

Mushroom Maths

MUSHROOM MATHS

For maths today Room's 1 & 2 are using their problem solving skills to find out what is the best option for selling our mushrooms.

Here is our problem: If we were looking at selling 8 bags of mushrooms which option would be the best?

Option 1
200gm for $3 approx 6 mushrooms 

Or

Option 2
300gms for $4 approx 9 mushrooms

Stay tuned for what children came up with and how they worked it out!

Mushrooms

Meadow Mushrooms approached our school to see if we were keen to grow some mushrooms. Mrs Butcher thought Room's 1 & 2 would love the challenge. So today they arrived. Apparently they take 5 to 10 days to grow. We are looking at maybe doing some cooking with them and maybe selling some. Come and view them in our classroom.

Lincoln University


Today Syndicate 2 had a fantastic trip to Lincoln University where our knowledge about insects was tested. Ask your child if they can tell you the three parts of an insects body. How many wings an insect has? How fast a dragonfly can fly? How many species of insects there are? What the difference is between a butterfly and a moth?
