The Library Learning Hub
Each Thursday room 19 and 24 combine for Library. It is an exciting space with wonderful furniture and a range of engaging activities. Some recent additions are the Lego wall, Puppet Show and Drawing table. The Learning Hub is fun!

Rally Robin
Each morning Room 24 uses a Kagan strategy for learning called "Rally Robin"
Children select a partner, greet each other, complete a WALT, give a compliment and end by thanking their buddy. Next children are selected to be a role model and demonstrate best practice, whilst the remainder are an excellent audience. Here Jack and Poppy are counting backwards by 2's from 30 using the Activ-Board prompt if they need to.

Osmos
Last week as part of Tinker-time Room 24 boys were roistered to use the Osmo kits. Coding is very popular and here is Norman solving a challenge. He was both excited and proud of his achievements.

Huff n Puffathon
It was truly an amazing event with lovely weather, parents to watch and cheer, house chants to inspire the teams and at the end a free pump bottle and wrist band. Room 24 would like to thank the PTA for organising such a wonderful event!
Shapes are Fun
Lucas and Baxter read a story and we decided to try the activity. We began with two squares and cut them in half vertically and diagonally and then folded them again to make four squares and four triangles, because we are learning that half of a half is a quarter. Antony and Neil experimented to make a rocket and the letter T or M.
