Paul's magic show is on Tuesday 25th January2011 in Auburn Town Hall. Easy peasy lemon squeezy! Mrs Clift Good morning Stage 2,
Great job answering questions about the Great Barrier Reef. I am learning lots of interesting facts about the reef from the information you have posted in. Today's post is different. We will be using an online dictionary to find the definitions of key words. Level 1 coral, habitat, threat, mammal Level 2 colony, atoll, marine, carnivore Level 3 marine, heritage,tourism, diversity Extension Use the key words in a sentence which will blow your teacher's socks off! Remember to select and oragansie your post BEFORE you submit. Good luck. Mrs Clift, Miss Robertson, Mr Hammond and Miss Vandenberg Hi Auburn North,
I came across this fun website and thought I'd share it with you. Top 10 Paper Planes My favourite is 'The Kite' as it is so simple to make and it really flies. Enjoy! Mrs Clift Only use if you have a broadband connection as dial up will take too long to load. Hi Auburn North,
The Library is open every morning from 8.30-8.55am except for Thursday. There is so much to see and do. You can change your book, do a puzzle, learn on the computer, visit the blog, read comics, draw pictures , write stories, complete homework or simply find a nice comfortable, quiet spot to read. Parents are very welcome. Have you been to visit? What do you like to do? Mrs Clift Hi Auburn North,
It's time to reflect and share our learning. What amazing things have you been learning in class and in the Library? I had a converstation in the playground with Zahra (5B) today and she read me a wonderful poem she had found with her sister about caring for books. I hope if she is reading this post she shares it here. It made me think that perhaps there are other creative writers and thinkers out there. So what have you learnt? Post away. I look forward to reading your comments. Mrs CLift  Image:careaustralia.org.au Hello Stage 3 Bloggers, Welcome back to your third and final mission.
