Making Pizza! Yum!

This week the children in Room 1 and 2 worked together to make pizza! Yum!

The children have been learning about fractions and making pizzas and cutting them into equal slices was a great way to practice what they are learning about.

We made four pizzas and we needed a total of 32 slices. In order to work out how many slices the pizzas had to be cut into the children got into four groups - one for each pizza. When each group had the equal number of 8 children they knew that each pizza had to be cut into 8 slices.

                                                 

Making pizza was a great learning experience. The children really enjoyed making it, and of course eating it too !:)

Practicing our Speeches

The children in Room 1 have been doing a great job practicing their speeches in the classroom!

They have been focusing on using a clear and loud voice, pacing themselves appropriately and making eye contact with the audience.

This week the children are saying their speeches in the classroom and all the Sheridan semi-finalists will say them on Thursday at the library.

Remember to keep practicing your speeches at home too!
