Wow! What a week of learning we had in Class 1. We have been extremely busy learning lots of exciting things about the beautiful country of Australia. We learnt about the Australian flag and made some flags for our display. We also learnt about the indigenous people of Australia and some of the tools they used and still use today like the Boomerang. In maths we learnt about 3D shape nets and then made our own little rectangular prism suitcases for our display. In literacy we focused on writing postcards to our friends while we were holidaying in sunny Australia. During music we learnt a new song ‘Home Among the Gumtress’ which you can watch below. Finally we got to skype Mr Rojas parents and interview them about their lives in Australia, we even met their dog Mikey! We all really enjoyed International Week 2013.
