STICKER SHOP DAY
On our first day back in Term Two we had a special all-day maths activity: Sticker Shop. We worked in groups to set up shops, then bought and sold stickers.
What was something tricky that you learnt how to do on Sticker Shop Day?
Have you got a tip or a suggestion for our next shop day?
OUR EXCURSION TO THE STATE LIBRARY
Our excursion to the State Library of Victoria helped us to understand that the past and the present can be seen in one location. We also visited the Shot Tower building in Melbourne Central Shopping Centre.
What features of the buildings did you notice? What do these features tell us about the buildings?
iPod Circle: Calendars
Listen to our iPod Circle. We passed the iPod around to record what we already know about calendars. Our brains are not empty: we already know lots from using calendars in our world. This week we are choosing activities to bump up our learning about calendars in Maths. We will do an iPod circle at the end of the activities to see how our learning has grown!
Do you use a calendar in your life? Tell us about it.

Maths Challenge Week
Last week we challenged ourselves to stretch our learning in our independent maths activities. Our activities helped us to count in 2’s, 5’s and 10’s. We also got to improve how we read, write, say and understand larger numbers.
During the video, the students answer four questions:
- What have you been doing?
- Was there anything tricky about it?
- What is something new you have discovered?
- Can you give a tip for another learner?
Do you think this is a good way to learn maths? Write your comments here.
