See if you can remember the procedure you used to bake some things in the class. Add your instructions in the voicethread. You need to explain the procedure so that anyone listening or reading your instruction can also make it. I have sent an invitation to your emails. Find my message and then follow the link to get there.
There is some fantastic work being added to the Baking VoiceThread! Well done! I really enjoyed Hannah's video. You could be on TV taking a cooking show one day Hannah! You just missed out how much we need of the butter, sugar and rice bubbles. Also how hot the pan had to be. Do you remember all those parts too? I can almost make Honey Bumbles and Chocolate Bumbles now. See if you can add to what Hannah had to say.

Week 4
Well what a week!
It was Hana's last week with us and we gave her a suprise party! Thanks parents who were able to send in some food. I know it was short notice! Hana was delighted and had a lovely last day with the children.
This is what we have done this week.
Instructions and making posters with a message has been our writing focus. We made a book of new skipping moves. You can read it anytime you visit the class. It is in the library.
It is fantastic to see the wiki story is well under way. Also have a go at the VoiceThread, Lucy has! It is under the 'Rubbish' heading. The rubbish you see is a photo from a school rubbish bin and this is quite a typical rubbish bin. Some children may be bringing too much lunch to school!

More homework
I am really impressed to see parents trying really hard to get into the homework online! The wiki was a bit of a disaster so I have found another one. It looks a lot easier to use from my end so I hope you also find is a lot user friendly! Follow the instructions on the right hand side tool bar.
In Maths we have been learning about multiplication and division so have added these links to the homework list.

A really effective way to get your child to read is to use this: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
Download onto your computer. It is free. The children are familiar with Audacity because we have it on the classroom computers. They read their reading book recording onto Audacity. Save their reading onto your computer and then you have a wonderful record of their reading that you keep and listen to whenever you like!
With the oral language morning buzz groups we have been learning to be a good listener. Could you please add a comment about what a good listener is? Check out our Animoto video!
