New Year- New Class- New Learning- More Fun!

Weeks 1 to 6 Term 1 2015

Hello every body and welcome back to Mrs McGarry's blog!

Mrs McGarry is now teaching year 6 students in room 16 and she is absolutely loving it! We must apologise for not posting anything up on our class blog until now... but we have just been so flat out with getting to know each other, learning new classroom routines, learning how soldiers dealt with conflict in WW1, how to stand to attention during our morning drills, how to draw flowers from a bugs eye view in art, how to pitch during active sports rotation and not to mention learning new things in maths, reading and writing! But luckily for you Mrs McGarry always had her phone handy to capture it all- Gosh just look at everything we have done in only 6 weeks!

1st week and we win Levi the Bear at assembly... why? because we are awesome! 
Morning drills with Major McGarry- star jumps, push ups, running, high knees.....phew so exhausting!
Learning how to work in a group by completing the 'House of Cards Challenge'
Working together to build a cup tower- no hands allowed only a string for each person and a rubber band, oh and no talking! 
Whaea Dagmar has displayed some of our art work up in her room- look at our stunning flowers from a bugs eye view! 
Playing softball for our active sports rotation- watch out Black Sox/ White Sox players!
Sitting up at assembly- we want Levi back! 
Julius, Charlize and Tali were called up on stage by Whaea Barb during week 5 assembly to talk about their obstacle course they created at lunch time! Great to see room 16 students getting active at lunchtime and putting the new sports gear to good use!
