Police Helicopter Visit


Recently we had visit from a police helicopter and a police dog with it's handler. The whole school sit on the field waiting for the helicopter to land. I was really amazed when the helicopter landed because the wind from the helicopter was so powerful grass was flying everywhere. The officers who came out of the helicopter told us about their job and what they do. After the helicopter left we had some visits from a German Shepard. The German Shepard demonstrated how it uses its nose to help police officers.

Inter-School Athletics

Yesterday some students from Panmure bridge School went down to Lloyd Elsmore Park to participate in the inter-school athletics. The events I was participating in were 100 meter sprints, high jump and long jump. In the morning the boys were doing the track events and the girls were doing the field events. In my heat I came third. After that we had a break. My next event was long jump. I tried my best and managed to come first. The event after I participated in was high jump. We didn't get to finish it because most people had to do relays. I had a really great time and had a lot of fun.

Fire Station Trip

On Tuesday LS1 and LS2 went to the Panmure Fire Station. We learnt about Fire trucks and the different tools they have in it. The firefighters also demonstrated how they got someone out of a car if they are trapped inside of it. The tools they used were called spreaders and cutters. It was a really fun experience and enjoyed our time.

Animal Adaption


This week we've been using our smart searching skills to find out how animals adapt to their environment. All of the students in LS2 had to choose an animal with the same letter at their first name.

My Explanation

How Children Learn At School

Children have lots of different way of learning. They are really curious. Learning is really important for children because it helps the gain knowledge. One way children learn is by asking questions. They also give feedback and ask for feed forward.

When they ask for feed forward they get learn new things which could help them in different areas of learning. Children often watch role models and copy what they do.

When children are unsure of what to do they either listen to others carefully or watch others do. They can also search it up on the internet.

When children reflect about their learning they can see where they have gone wrong and what they have to improve on. They take risks to learn new things and get a new experience.

Children have lots of different ways to learn at school. They are really curious. Learning is a really important part of a children's time at school because it helps the gain knowledge and helps them build confidence in learning.


For this task we were working in partners to write an explanation. I worked with Fatongia. We then showed another pair our explanation and they gave us feedback and feed forward. Our feedback wast that we have great ideas and our writing is well layed out. Our feed forward was that we should try not to repeat things.

Screencastify - Finding Fractions Of An Amount



Last week Mrs Grant came to LS2 to teach us how to create a screencastify. For this we firstly had to write our scripts and make sure we had all the tabs we needed open. Next we clicked on the screencastify extension and clicked record. I had to make sure I was speaking loud and clear. I then listened to my recording to see if it was good. I like using screencastify because it is a different way of showing my learning.
