Room6@Sunnyhills

Room 6 is embarking on a new inquiry unit... Passion Projects! These individual projects will delve into something that we are passionate about combined with something that we dislike or are worried about to create a solution for what we are worried about. First we talked about what is passion. We decided that passion is when you love something and you are dedicated to giving your all to that thing. For instance, Poppy loves horses and horse riding. It is her passion and she dedicates as much time as she can to improving her skills as a horse rider. Then we created some wonderings about a topic we are passionate about... After that, we motivated and empowered ourselves with this Kid President video. Now, we are planning at the planning phase of our passion projects. We are creating a driving question that we can research, create a product for and then present what we have done in week 8. Sound exciting? We think so! Watch out for more blogs about our passions!

Wooooooooh today was a very tiring day. We had our own 'babies' to look after and boy was it hard work. We made sure to work with our co-parent to look after, feed, change and entertain our babies for a whole day at school. It was hard to multi-task sometimes! We have a new found appreciation for all that our own parents have done and do for us. Here are some photos from our day.

In room 6 we are experiencing what it is like to be parents. As part of our Keeping Ourselves Safe unit we are learning how to look not only after ourselves but after others. Miss Stuhlmann will play a simulated cry during the day to signal that the baby needs to be feed, changed, burped and played with. Let's see how we do as parents for the day.
