FAIRY TALE PROGRESS UPDATE!

Here's a quick update on the latest goings on in our quest to solve all the fairy tale characters problems...

We have found out about all sorts of cool things like there are different types of bridges like beam, arch, truss and suspension bridges.   We have learnt about what houses are made off too. Each group has taken time to stop and REFLECT on what they are trying to achieve and are now at the ACT stage.  

We are now all busy designing our bridge or house and we'll start making them hopefully tomorrow.   We are having so much fun and are learning lots along the way too! So is Mrs Lunn!

If you have any boxes or gladwrap rolls you don't need at home,  please send them along to school. We'd love to re use them!

SUPER LEADERS!

We have appointed Stem Captains for our inquiry into how to help Jack get down the beanstalk quickly.  The Stem Captain has lots of responsibilities.   They are in charge of making sure the organisers are filled in, making sure that everyone has a say and most importantly,  making sure the group follows the inquiry process correctly.   Here is a photo of two of our Stem Captains,  Phoebe and Macy... and a photo of Captain Macy in action!

SAVING JACK!

We recieved a letter from Jack who is the main character in Jack and the Beanstalk.   He needs our help! He loves climbing the beanstalk because it is great exercise but unfortunately the Giant often tries to catch him.   It takes too long for Jack to climb down the beanstalk.  He's asked us to find a fast and safe way for him to get down.   Here are a few photos of us busy trying to solve Jack's problem.   Feel free to ask us what we've been up to.  We'd love to tell you all about it!
