Week One Term Two

This week we dived into our school wide Inquiry about Function. In Room 14 we have decided that the word function means 'what something does'.  To begin the Inquiry, we are learning all about simple machines. This week we have been noticing screws, and they are EVERYWHERE! On the playground, on the tables, on the bookshelves, on the whiteboard, inside the cupboards - literally everywhere!

Mrs Marsh has sneaked Mr Marsh's electric drill into school, and we were allowed to have a go at drilling holes into a piece of wood. The drill was heavy and quite loud - but it was fun to use!

Next week week we are going to use screw drivers to take apart an old keyboard and an old DVD player.

We have also been learning about comparative language such as tall, taller, and tallest. In groups of three, we sorted ourselves into tall, taller, and tallest - the rest of the photos are in the class for you to come and have a look at 👍
