COMMONWEALTH GAMES DAY

2010-09-22T13:51:00.008+12:00

Today at St Albans School we had a commonwealth games day. Room 28/9/22 were JAMAICA! We had soooo much fun competing in different events. Our team chant was "Jamaica, Jama-a-aica, we're number one and we're gonna win gold!, We're number one and we're gonna win gold!"
Georgia and Jessica said their favourite game was the tug of war and their team won! Ellie liked the ladder race, Georgie, Emmanuel, Sophie and Hannah liked the obstacle course, Toby and Shivesh liked the hockey shot, Yu liked the soccer shot, and Cater liked the skipping.
We dressed up in Jamaican colours - Green, Black, and Yellow. We all wore headbands with dredlocks, and entered the games in Jamaican Bobsleds!! Wow what a day.

Greedy Cats Door

2010-09-17T12:27:00.004+12:00

Room 28 have re-created a shared story book to create an i-movie. Our learning Intention looked at our use of voice and what was needed to talk to an audience.
Each child chose a page, then created the illustration using a template of greedy cat and their own depiction of the background. When the artwork was finished they each took a digital photo of their art that was then loaded into i-movie. Dominic from our buddy class then helped each child (and Miss Scadden!) record their voices to become the narrators.
Miss Scadden is very proud of how well everyone did!

Room 24 Our Buddy Class

2010-08-13T12:04:00.004+12:00

Wow we are so lucky to have Room 24 as our buddy class. They have wonderful children who are budding experts at ICT today they came to show us lots of programmes we can use on the school's apple MAC computers. We had so much fun exploring programmes like Kidpix and photo booth. Miss Scadden called us a bunch of giggling girties because all she could hear was us laughing!!! We hope Room 24 can come and join us every Friday so we can become experts too!

Reading

2010-08-13T11:55:00.004+12:00

We have been very busy learning to read. There are lots of opportunities in class to get involved in reading and reading activities. The children participate in guided reading with the teacher 4 times a week. During reading time the children who are not reading with the teacher have a wide range of activities to choose from that promote early reading skills. Some of these activities include buddy reading, reading in the library corner, reading games that promote letters and sounds, big books and poems, and whiteboards and pens with word cards. Miss Scadden is very pleased at how well the children are doing!!

Starting School

2010-07-30T14:04:00.004+12:00

We have been learning lots in our first couple of weeks at school! We know the sounds letters make, and have been practicing writing them. We have all been trying really hard to write stories by ourselves. We are staring to sound out the words independently and draw a picture plan so we can remember what we want to say. In maths we have been working with numbers 0-20 and learning lots of games that will help us to add numbers together.

Footprints

2010-06-25T08:12:00.024+12:00

On our first morning meeting Miss Scadden we completed 'footprints' about ourselves. Footprints are something we leave behind as we go. As we start our journey at St Albans School, we too will leave behind a piece of ourselves as we learn and grow together. These footprints let us learn a little bit about each other before we start in Room 28. This is what we now know:

Jessica has a cat called Gibley, her favourite colours are blue and red. Her favourite food is chicken nibbles and she likes doing puzzles.

Ellie has a dog called Buck and a cat called Georgie. Her favourite colours are pink and purple. She loves chicken noodle soup and playing snakes and ladders.

Crystal has a cat and a dog and her favourite colour is red. Crystal also likes to draw butterflies!

Georgia loves drawing Sophie her nana's new puppy! Georgia has 2 fish named Dora and Boots. Her favourite colour is pink and she loves fish and chips. Her favourite game to play is 'Snap'

Oliver is the oldest child in his family and the first to come to school! Olivers favourite food is hotdogs and he likes the colour blue.

Carters favourite colour is purple and his two favourite foods are chicken and fish 'n' chips.

Miss Scadden has three cats - Cinnamon, Kitty cat, and Azrael. Her favourite colour is pink and she loves travelling overseas and meeting new people. Her favourite thing to do is read books and she is very passionate about teaching children to read!
