Summarising

This week we learnt about summarising.

Summarising is retelling important information from a story.

To help us we also used visualisation. Visualising is getting a picture in your head.
We also connected to inferring. Inference is understanding what information is unlocked.


Swimming

Today I paractised my water safety skills at the Lagoon Pools

The first skills I practised was streamline kicking with my arms behind my ears.

Then I practised kick board straight out of my head while kicking my feet.

Lastly I practised to put my head in the water while swimming.

I got better doing kick board, but I need to improve my streamline kicking.

LI.To develop knowledge of water safety.

Swimming

Today I went to the lagoon pools. It was our first swimming lesson. My coach was Shanti. We got in to the pool. First we did a streamline stroke. This is when we put our arms up behind our ears and we kept ours hands together. Then we had to hold the board and swim up and down with it. Then we sat on the board and floated on it. We were pushing ourselves while floating. Then Shanti grabbed the pool toys and we had to find them. My favourite part was finding the pool toys and floating on the board. I enjoyed learning to swim with Shanti.

Tangrams

Today I learned how to make tangrams.

I rearranged the pieces to make animal shapes.

First I made a square piece of paper because tangrams are made from a big square

Then I folded the squares into various and cut them out.

Lastly, I tried to make different animal shapes from the tangram Pieces.
