Personal and class challenges

We have been discussing different types of challenges. For ourselves and also to create a variety of games and activities that we can challenge other classes with.

Some personal challenges the children have identified:
Thomas: Put your hand up. Manage yourself.
Katelynd: I need to stop reading so much at night and go to sleep when I am asked to.

Some ideas for a class challenge:
Hugo: Lots of different little challenges like: Try to lick your elbow. Try to turn your hand around on the table. Make a 3 leaf clover with your tongue.
Paris: A Backwards race.
Britta: Hoola hoop race.
Isabella: Skipping 100 forwards and backwards.
Tyra: Sniffing different things challenge.

Great ideas! Are there anymore great challenges we could setup and challenge the other classes with?

Thank you Parents and Grandparents!

I have put out a challenge to my students to see who has been commenting in our blog and where they are from. It is fantastic to hear from you and I am glad you are enjoying being part of our classroom.

Introducing Samantha, Petra and Hannah

Sorry Petra and Hannah. It was decided your PhotoStories had too much information about your families. I want to keep you safe so I have taken them off our blog site. If we have time we will do them again but without so much family information, such as your last name and where you live. They were fantastic and you both spoke so well.

Outdoor Education Week

Last week we were all away from school on our Outdoor Education Week. In class we are now writing about what happened during Outdoor Education. We are thinking about the Plus, Minus and Interesting (PMI), parts we experienced during the week.
