May the 4th - Star Wars Day

Yesterday was a special day in Room 20.  We used the power of the Force to complete our work, because in honour of it being May the 4th, it was Star Wars day in class.

In the morning we started with cross country and then completed a Star Wars handwriting task.  Next it was time for Star Wars maths including problem solving, a basic fact BB8 colouring sheet and some R2D2 multiplication and subtraction games.

 




After morning tea  Mrs Dawe came into class to start on a space themed art project using fibre and fabric.  There will be several more sessions working on this piece of art over the term.


After lunch it was time for our reading tumble, as well as our usual reading groups, during which students helped Yoda and R2D2 find rhyming words and blend and digraph words.

In our writing session students were given the option to write a story based on two different writing prompts / photos.  The first was a photo of C3P0, R2D2 and an Ewok on Endor with the prompt - write a story about what would happen if you met these three in the forest.  The second choice was a photo of a Super Star Destroyer with the half completed Death Star in the background with the prompt - you're the commander of the Star Destroyer what do you do when the Rebel Alliance attacks.

The students were really enthusiastic about all the activities and we had a really fun day.
