Salsa Dancing

Today we learnt a little about the history of salsa and some did some salsa dancing. This was a lot of fun!

We are learning dance and music skills in our lead up to the music festival. Our Inquiry is about "Sound".

Yoga to wake our brains up!

Yoga to start the day!

Weight

In Maths we have been exploring weight and learning about non-standard units. We have had a lot of fun trying to balance the scales and seeing which objects are heavier and lighter.

Thank you Stephanie for talking to us about your journey
