Crew Building in Miss Barnett’s Class

On Tuesday, we made Spaghetti and Marshmallow Bridges. We had to build a structure to see how many ping pong balls it would hold. We had to work collaboratively and make sure that everyone in our team was having a go. Freya said, “It was a difficult challenge but it was nice to work as a team and collaborate together.” After that, we went outside and played Cops and Robbers with Miss Myer’s class and we all played together.

On Wednesday, we completed the paper challenge. The aim was to hold as many pieces of paper as possible. We took it in turns to be the captain and give directions to our teammates.

On Thursday, we played everyone is it. Eve said, “It was hard to dodge everyone else because if you weren’t fast enough they would dig you first.” “It was hard to decide who was tug first,” said Kianna. Crystal said it was very challenging but it was fun.

In maths, we have been doing arithmetic starters. We worked together to do a range of problem solving activities. We have also been thinking about the best part of us. We wrote a draft and then wrote it on the chrome books. We have also learnt about community and the different communities we are part of.

All week, we have been singing our crew song. On Friday, we completed an escape room maths challenge.
