Kilbirnie Recreation Centre TripKilbirnie Recreation Centre Trip
On Monday some of room 8 and all of room 7 came on an end of year trip to Kilbirnie Rec Centre. First all as a group we played Octopus. Then we split into two groups and played some other games. One of the games was where there was a shark trying to tag people. The people were only safe when they were on an island (which is a hoop). But when someone put their foot in you had to get out. There were roller blades and roller skates to play on after we had our lunch. The other Team 2 children went a week later.

Bean PlantingBean Planting
On Thursday 27 October Team 2 planted beans. These beans are called runner beans. In Room 7 we made a chart to see whose table’s beans grow to the top of the stake. When the first one got to the top, each person at that table would get a chocolate coin.

Poetry in Team 2Poetry in Team 2
For our writing topic Team 2 are doing poems. The first step is to do a brain storm on your subject e.g. the beach. The next step we did was share our brain storm with a buddy to see if we needed to add something. Then after we had edited our work, we got a big sheet of paper to publish on.

Kelly SportsKelly Sports
On Wednesday a Kelly Sports person came to present sports activities to Team 2. First they explained what you did at each station. Then we got into groups of 4 and she assigned our groups to a station. At the stations you did things like: kick a football around some cones, try to get bean bags in buckets, and wobble on wobble boards while throwing and receiving a ball. Team 2 enjoyed the Kelly Sports as it helped us with our sports skills.

Megan from Southern Landfill VisitsMegan from Southern Landfill Visits
Last week Megan from the Southern Land fill came to visit Team 2 to tell us about our topic reduce, reuse, recycle. Megan told us all about what happens at a landfill and what people should do with their waste. One of the first things she showed us was a yellow rubbish bag and what people put in it. One of the last things we did was to get a piece of paper from the cake tin and read out a solution to reduce, reuse or recycle. This really helped Team 2 with their topic.
