Term 3 highlights

Fried Rice

We made Fried Rice to experience some local cuisine from China.  Bella, Talluelah and Mrs Super Simpson helped us cook it in a Wok!

We used the broccoli and cauliflower from the Room 6 garden.  It was so exciting to eat food we had grown! We made a cone for a bowl to eat our rice out of and we even ate our fried rice with our fingers!!!

Fab Friday Mathematics!

Do most children in our school have blue eyes??

What we found out:
Blue eyes in our school....
Room 1- 11
Room 2- 9
Room 3- 11
Room 4- 11
Room 5- 12
Room 6- 7
Room 7- 6

Total number of blue eyes in the school- 67
Total number of children in our school- 157
% of children with blue eyes= 43%

We decided that most had to be about 75% or above!
So.... no most children do not have blues eyes in our school. Under half- 43% of children have blue eyes.
