Bug Catcher Construction
Over the
past few weeks we have planned, designed and written a procedure for the
creation of our very own bug catchers. In the following week, we are asking the
children to bring in any materials that might be useful for the construction of
their own design. Please talk to your child at home about what they would like
to collect and bring into school by next Friday. Any materials that are special
for your child’s own design should be placed in a plastic bag with their
name on it. Any materials to be shared can be placed loosely in the boxes
that will be set up in the classroom.
Some useful materials may include:
- Clean empty jars/lids
- Plastic milk bottles/juice containers
- Mesh/netting
- Pipe cleaners/string
- Anything else you can think of!
We will be
putting our designs together from 11:30am – 12:30pm on Friday 9th
June. During this time, we are seeking the expertise of a few parent helpers to assist us with
construction. If you would like to come along and help please email me or let
me know in the classroom.
Public Holiday/Pupil Free Day
A reminder
that the children start school on Wednesday next week due to the public holiday
on Monday, as well as the staff Catholicity Day on Tuesday.
Think Mentals
Please note
that Unit Four in your child’s Think Mentals book is to be completed by
next Friday 9th June. Thank you to parents for marking the work as
you go and for giving your children feedback as they work through these tasks.
Friendology
In Friendology
we have been learning about Friendship Fires and how to ‘put them out’.
Some
information that may be a good discussion point around the dinner table:
How to Confront
a Friendship Fire:
1.
Find a good time to talk, just the two of you.
2.
In a calm, serious voice, retell the situation.
3.
Explain how it made you feel.
4.
Listen to their side and truly try to understand
their perspective.
By following
these steps, we can extinguish even the most difficult Friendship Fires!
Happy week
to you all!
Miss Rundle
