First Discovery 2018

Yeah, First Discovery  for 2018!

Super that swimming is now over, so that we are not squeezing reading into our afternoons. As Discovery has a big focus on the essential skills, we are looking at self managing. We talked about what this would look like while we are choosing our learning activities.

Great ideas:

• sharing equipment and resources (construction boxes)
• speaking respectfully if we need to use something
• clean up quickly when it is 2:40
• listen to Rachael if we are working in the garden
• use our listening manners at sharing time

We achieved most of these today - some will need a bit more practice but we all had such FUN!! A shame my phone decided to die, so thank you Olivia for taking photos on an iPad at sharing time. This even gave me the opportunity to learn something new - how to use airdrop to get the photos onto my computer.

 Thank you Jasmine for teaching us how to use paper to make talking puppets. The is also a special part of Discovery where we teach each other new skills.

 Great teamwork Milla and Michaela.

Fantastic crane Quinn, you are quite the engineer!
