Design and Technology

As part of our Design and Technology learning we have been looking at different obstacle courses and their designs. Our task was to investigate what resources we have available in the Play Shed and then use them in a creative way to make a challenging, fun and safe obstacle course for us to use at school. We have taken an inventory list of available equipment and we are beginning to design our courses. Once we are finished we will even get to make some of them up and test them out. Keep an eye out for some of our finished designs in the near future!

What materials that you have at home do you think would make a great obstacle?

Welcome back to Term 4

Welcome back to our final term this year to all of our Seussville families, we hope you all had a safe and enjoyable holidays. We have another busy term ahead of us here at school and have hit the ground running. In Mathematics Year 3 are learning all about multiplication and Year 4 are currently investigating different types of angles, they have been hunting for different types of angles in the school environment.

We have also begun our new Geography inquiry called Australia's Neighbors. We will be looking at Vanuatu, Indonesia, Papua New Guinea and New Zealand in detail and we started off our learning with a quiz game to to learn some interesting information about each of the countries. We are super excited to learn about other countries and their culture, government, currency, flora and fauna, food, industries and natural features.

In English we have started the term learning about poetry. We have been reading some fun rhymes and have had a go at creating some animal alliteration.

What interesting sentence can you create using alliteration? 

For example: Lazy leaping lizards lick lemon lollipops.
