Olympic Games Are Important
Learning Intention- we are learning to explain why Olympic games are important.
Success Criteria: I know I can do this when I can write an explanation about the importance of Olympics in full sentence, correct grammar, correct spelling and punctuation.
Olympic games are important because there are lots of athletes from other countries to compete with each other.
Olympic games isn't all about winning. It's also about friendship, and helping each other. Athletes show respect, care and sportsmanship to each other.
Medals are important because if you are a winner, you get a gold, silver or an bronze medal and your country will be proud.
Runners run because they try their best to come first and earn a gold medal.
The Olympic torch is important because they light the cauldron for the Olympics games to start.
The flag bearers represent their country.

Trip to botanic garden
L.I - We are learning to write a recount using descriptive words.
S.C - I know I can do this when I can write a recount about botanic garden using descriptive words.
Yeah! We visited Botanic Garden!
On Tuesday, we went to the Botanic Garden. First we were being organised for the trip, then the teacher put on our name tags on. When we got there the teacher showed us were to put our bags in.Next we had our morning tea break inside a huge building.
After that Sarah showed us to a cool class called Potter. We learned about worms.On the board Sarah showed us stripy tiger worms.
We got to touch the worms on plastic plate.
After that we went outside and planted little seedlings. We used blue and pink watering cans, yellow gloves, shovels and sheep fertilizer. The teachers gave out the gloves to all of us. Then we grabbed a shovel and the sheep fertilizer and started digging in the soil. We got a seedling and put it on top of the fertilizer inside the deep hole and cover it with soil.
After that we saw some pretty flowers. We saw daises. They were colour white and yellow. We also saw sunflowers. There is also the chocolate plant that makes chocolate.
Then we went back to the class then Carline and Sarah thanked us for coming to the botanic garden. We all grabbed our bags and went back to the school on a bus.
