What is Sound?

Here are some of our initial ideas as we start this Inquiry:

What is Sound?

By Darling.

Sound is music. Some sounds are low and some sounds are high. Sounds are loud or quiet.

What is Sound?

By Emily.

I think it is a drum or a whisper. I like singing and listening. Sound can be low or high.

What is Sound?

By Archie.

It’s lightning hitting a house or someone banging on a drum. It is someone going up the stairs or someone banging in a nail. It is someone singing and the wind whistling.

What is Sound?

By Dakoda.

What is sound?

It is thunder and lightning.

Is it a hammer or a train?

Is sound a drum going Bang! Bang! Bang!

Or storms in the sky?

Sound can be loud.

It can be low.

Sound is fun to make.

What is Sound?

By Sophie O.

Sound is a word that bounces back to you. It is something that you say and it can come back in an echo.

Africa Concert

We presented our work about Africa to a class full of parents recently and the children did very well considering it had to be postponed from when I was away at the end of Term 3.
Here are some photos of us doing our presentation:

Wheat Men From Compost

It was exciting to use our compost, made over the past 6 weeks, to create a gift for our dads. Here are some photos and stories about the process.

Making Wheat Men.

By Hailey.

We got a tin. We hammered nails into the tin. We got all the stuff to make it. Then we got some googly eyes and some fluffy stuff to make eyebrows. We also got some pipe cleaners to make arms and legs. We made felt mouths and felt noses. At the end we put in wheat grass and we took them home.

Making Wheat Men.

By Devin.

We made a tin man. First we got a tin and then we put some eyes and a nose on them. We got legs and arms and some stones. Then we put in some grass. It was fun.
