Birds

Room 3 has been learning about birds and how they adapt to their environment.Birds have different beaks. They can be short, long, pointed or curved. Birds feathers are soft and light. Birds have different colors of feathers too. Some birds have short legs and some have thin, long legs. They are light so they can fly high in the sky.
We made our own birds and used feathers of our choice.

ONESIES AND PYJAMA DAY

Today, we had most of the children at Rosebank school wear onesies or pyjamas.
It was fun. We donated a gold coin towards CANTEEN.

We are wearing alligator, pig and bear onesies.

We are wearing pyjamas of different kinds and animal slippers.

ST. JOHN'S VISIT TO OUR SCHOOL

St. John's officers came to our school.  They showed us how they help people when they are injured.
We also had a look at their mini ambulance. They showed us pictures of what the ambulance looks like inside.

We had a turn to feel and smell the oxygen tank. 

Two children from our class were lucky to wear a vest, gloves and hat. 

SPRING IS HERE

Spring is here.  It is the month of September.

We have been finger printing.  We used yellow paint for the petals.  We used green for the stem and leaves.  After it dried we glued a muffin case in the centre of the flower. Look at our pretty daffodils !!

These are our blooming daffodils in spring.

ADAPTATION TO WEATHER

We adapt to weather by wearing clothes that suit the condition.We looked at different clothes that we wear.

This is what we wear in winter to stay warm. We wear jackets, beanie, gloves, slippers and woolly clothes.  These clothes are thick.  They are made of wool and polar fleece.

In the rain we adapt by wearing raincoats, gumboots or rain jackets. We can use an umbrella too.

Room 3 has been looking for the correct clothes to wear to adapt to the weather.

In summer we wear thin clothes. We wear T shirts, singlets and shorts.  Girls wear dresses. To keep cool we go to the pools for a swim and drink lemonade. We protect our skin by wearing sunscreen and sunhats.
