    We have been reading a lot about different sorts of pollution, looking at our first two questions. The last two questions are becoming part of our enquiry now. The children have chosen one of five areas that they want to look at, and will be investigating causes and solutions. They will be looking at finding out which local organisations are already trying to do something to help their issue, and then looking to see what THEY can do. Every little bit helps.

    The inquiries are going really well and the children have come up with heaps of awesome ideas for making the community more aware. The majority of the class are working on informative posters, a couple on pamphlets, and some even have competitions that will be running! Cool as!
    To help with their research, here are some sites that I think the kids might find useful:

    Hello folks and welcome to our shiny new Wikispace! This is where you can come from now on to see about things in this class. Eventually we'll even have children contributing to the website, but first their poor teacher needs to get her head around it all!
    I'm always working at something in here. Keep checking back.
    End of year dress ups!
    The kids and I discussed having some fun dress up themes in the last week of term. These were the ideas we came up with...
    Monday - Pyjamas Day (come dressed in your PJs and bring your teddy to snuggle with!)
    Tuesday - Free Choice Dress Up (dress up as whatever you like - even as yourself!)
    Wednesday - Wacky Backwards Wednesday (put your clothes on backwards, walk backwards, and answer to your backwards name!)
    Thursday - No dress up as we have our Fun Day at Hoyts Cinema
    Friday - Christmas Theme Dress Up (Santa, reindeer, angel, christmas tree, or just red / white / green clothes!)

    26/06/08 - The Pioneering Past page has been up and running for a while. If you want to know what we're doing in our topic at the moment, that's the place to go.
    13/03/08 - I've just had a go at the Cultures in Our Class page. All the flags are up there, hopefully I got all the flags from the cultures we have in our class. Do let me know if I've missed one! And I've also gone down and put big versions of all the flags of the cultures we are studying, along with some basic information about that country.
