Kiwikids present their "Truth about Brussels Sprouts

We read an article in a School Journal about Brussels Sprouts. The Jellyfish reading group decided to research what our class thought about them.

We asked how many people like them, how many people didn’t like them and how many people had never tried them. Look at our graph.

We interviewed some children and this is what they had to say.
J.S said that she’s not a big fan of Brussels Sprouts. “They taste disgusting when they go down my throat!

M.W. said that Brussels Sprouts are tasty and healthy. It has a nice hot saucy taste.

B.L. said she hates Brussel Sprouts! Why? Because they taste disgusting and weird.

I.L. said he hates Brussels Sprouts because they are disgusting and green.

Water Cycle Drama

In our groups we used drama to show our understanding of the Water Cycle. We had lots of fun moving our bodies in different ways to show movements of water or height of mountains. We took video clips of each other so that we could think of ways we might improve next time. We know we will definitely look at ways to improve our videoing skills next term! Please look at our Voicethread and click on our avatars to hear whats we had to say.

Water in 3 States

We used Glogster to make a poster. We chose pictures about water as ice, liquid and gas. Then we put our voices on using the Easispeak microphone.
We thought about colours and added our sounds to our poster. We hope you enjoy it.
