Boat Builders
This term we are exploring the idea of being builders. One of the building challenges we have tried is building a boat out of cardboard boxes and other bits and pieces. For the challenge we had to build a boat that would float for 60 seconds and carry 6 plastic rods without the rods falling off the boat. If our boats were not successful the first time we could modify them and try again. It was tricky but a lot of fun. We could work by ourselves or with a partner or group.

The Cross Country
A few weeks ago it was our Cross Country Race. Here are some stories we wrote about our experience.
Zareen
At the cross country race first we had to wait for our turn. Next we had to wait behind the rope. Third we ran on the field. I didn't like it because I was sick.
Charan
At the cross country race I was starting to beat Jay but I was winning the race and I was number two and I was trying to beat Benjamin. Benjamin was the winner and I was second.
Benjamin
At the cross county race I was the winner!
Raidah
At the cross country race I was the second person. Jordan won the race. At the end of the race I slipped then we needed to line up. Then we went back to our classroom. I felt excited!
Ruben
At the cross county race I felt a little excited. But I had to wait a lot. When it was my turn I went to the starting line. When the two blocks bashed I ran as fast as I could but I was the 4th one but it was fun and very tiring. When it was finished I got to go back to class. I was tired because I ran all around the field.
Lucas
At the cross country race first we had to run to the finish line. Next I felt like I am going to faint!
Rosa
At the cross country race it was fun. I was the third one. I felt good at the cross country race. I felt tired. It was fantastic!
