WATER SAFETY

 This week we worked on water safety in the school pool. We all wore clothes so that we could tell the difference between clothes and togs when in the water.  

We noticed the weight of the clothes dragged us down. We put buckets on our heads and used the air pocket to breathe. We were pushed out of the small dinghy to get a feeling of being overwhelmed when landing in the water. 

Mrs Ewen was there beside us through all of this and this helped us feel safer!

The Best Of Me

 We have been writing about the Best Part of Me: All Room 4 students chose their best part of their body and wrote about why this part was the BEST:

Chorus

           We all laugh in the same language

           We all love to learn and play

           Our hearts beat in the same rhythm

           Round the world, we’re all the same

           We all cry when we feel sorrow

           We all love our family

           We all hope for a better tomorrow

           Round the world, you and me

Raj rides a rickshaw, Nigel takes the bus

Gabe drives a bobsled, Cynda walks through dust

Early each morning , just like me and you

Children all around the world are on their way to school! (oh)

We’re ebony, ivory, bronze and gold and tan

We’re citizens of planet earth, a family of man
