Room 1 is doing a statistics Investigation.We had to think of a question with a good reason to ask, e.g: " What is your favourite pet??" and go around the classes and ask them. It was hard to find a reason because we couldn't really think of a reason for our question.We had about 6 options and they had two vote for one of them. Then we collected the data and put it into a bar chart. We came up with 3 statements about the data. We went onto numbers on the laptops and put it into a tally.Then that onto a bar chart. We dragged the bar chart with all the data onto comic life. We put on our 3 statements and our reason and then printed it off and we are going to display them in our class-room.We are very proud of what we have achieved!!!

Buddy Reading
Last week Room 1 and Room 4 got together to do some buddy reading. Room 4 bought their reading books with them and we found a place to sit in the pod. Our little buddies did some reading to us first. Then we went to their classroom and chose a picture book to read to them. They found the books really interesting. We were excited to work with a buddy from Room 4 because we haven't worked with them very much this year. Our buddies tried so hard to work out words they didn't know. Our buddies really looked up to us and listened carefully when we were trying to help them. It was challenging getting our buddies to sound out some words correctly especially when they really didn't know the word. Next time we think we might bring one of our own books and read to them to show our good reading strategies. We did some thinking about our own thinking while were buddy reading and thought about what questions I might ask next to make sure they know what the story was about.
