CATE & ZOE'S GENIUS HOUR RABBIT FACT SLIDESHOW

AIDAN & ADAM'S GENIUS HOUR FROG SLIDEWHOW

THE ANIMAL CHALLENGE!

Today's Genius Hour focused on us being COMPETENT.  We had to make/draw/write about an animal of our choice but we had to demonstrate that we were competent.  It was great to see how many different ways we could show how competent we were.
Here are a few photos of us...

GENIUS HOUR!

THE GREAT FROG CHALLENGE!

TADPOLES COME TO VISIT!

Adam brought his tadpoles in to school.  They created some amazing interest in the kids and we got some fantastic writing out their visit too!

On Friday we held the Great Frog Challenge.  We had a set of criteria we had to meet and here are a few photos of our creative froggy ideas!

TECH-TUESDAY

Today we had our first Tech-Tuesday.  Mrs Lunn and Miss Crowther issued us with a challenge!

We had to make a toy.

The success criteria was as follows:

1.  Your toy must move our make a noise
2.  Your toy must be fun to play with
3.  Your toy must be CREATIVE

We brainstormed in groups what we could make and then we drew a plan.  Next we spend ages making our marvelous creations!

We also learnt how to make a flow chart to show other people the steps to making our toy.

We had great fun!

ALLIGATOR ALLEY

Today after reading Mrs O'Malley in Alligator Alley, for Genius Time we had our focus on Alligators!

We made cool alligator models out of mobilo, cardboard and paper.  Some of us worked alone and others worked as part of a team but we ALL displayed our Creativity.

Good job guys!
