The Great Maths Challenge

By Anonymous -

This morning Mrs Madden email the Sunnyhills teachers a mathematical challenge to try with our students. At first, we though the answer was straight forward but after calculating and re-calculating we realised it would not be as easy as we thought. 
We pulled out lots of materials (plastic cubes, blocks, counters and tens blocks) to help us try to understand and solve this challenge.








After much brainpower and with the help of our classmates (and teacher) we managed to solve the challenge.

So now, WE CHALLENGE YOU! See if you are able to find the numbers to go in each square and comment your answers below. We will let you know if you are right or if you need to try again.

Chinese Lion Dance

A huge thank you to the AMAZING E-Pacs Lion & Dance Group for coming to Sunnyhills to show and teach us about the Chinese Lion Dance. We had so much fun listening to you and now know so much more about Chinese New Year. I really loved when Tracey the lion dancer put on the costume and showed us how to do some of the lion dance steps. Which part did you like? Please check out the videos below:

Safe and Strong Online

Continuing on from our amazing lesson with Mrs Lee in the Exploration Station, we have been working on our projects to share our knowledge on how to be safe and strong online. It is so important that we are aware of the dangers that could happen and what we can do if we don't feel safe. We really love coming into the Exploration Station where we can create games online with Scratch, film videos with our friends and make wonderful models and game boards. Rebecca and Danielle have already created and completed a video showing what they know about being safe and strong online. Check it out below. And here are some action shots with projects in the making.
