The best animal in the world

The best animal in the world



The best animal in the world is a chicken.


A chook helps in the garden, they have five toes and lay eggs.They molt about around March to Winter when they are older and young. They are all different colours like black, white, yellow, brown, blue and grey.


There are three reasons why chooks are the best animal in the world.

 Firstly, chooks are a recycling helper.
They make mulch for you and they eat food scraps for you.

 Secondly, chooks are handy when they lay eggs. They will lay five or more eggs a week.

Lastly, chooks are a very good with the garden because they mix the mulch.
They mix the mulch with their feet and clear your garden.


I clearly believe that chooks are the best animal in the world because they make mulch, lay eggs once a day and they mix the mulch with there feet.

Luke's birthday

Today is my friend's birthday it is very exciting. He brought in cup cakes. They were so yum! He got a wii game and a DS game and a giant globe, it is cool. He is having a birthday party at his house.
Also, in class on his birthday he doesn't like to do work he likes to have fun.

THE NEXT DAY
Last night he had his party, he told me that he stayed up and played his ds and didn't go to sleep. The things he got for his birthday are a Pirates of the Caribbean Lego wii game and he got lots of other things to. At lunch he played Junior Survivor, a game he made up.

Kits and Cats

Kits and Cats


by kaia and kaliah



Under our Discovery verandah we have a cat with a couple of kittens. Kaliah and Kaia are trying to get a cat trap that will not harm the cat family and then they will take them to the RSPCA. the RSPCA would not come and get them & neither would the Local Council. Kenards did have cat traps so we are getting the stuff from there. Some of the children are bringing in cat carry cages and cat food. We also needed to catch the mum so kaia and kaliah's families prayed that they would catch all of them. To hire the cat trap it costed $ 52.00 a week so our class brought in $3.00 each on Friday the 27th we counted up the money we only just have enough!
Stay tuned for more on our cats!

The Planets

The Planets CD


By Gustav Holst


A few weeks ago Discovery class listened to "The Planets" by Gustav Holst and we had to do paintings and work sheets about them. So this is what I thought about the songs...


Mars Bringer of War made me feel frightened and a bit scared. It was a bit scary!


Venus the Bringer of Peace makes me feel calm and rested. Much better after Mars!


Mercury the winged messenger made me feel nice and happy, I could also picture a snowy window. Some other people thought it sounded like Christmas. How nice!


Jupiter the Bringer of Jollity made me think of royalty. It also made me feel happy and big. What a song!


I thought the music was great, cool, awesome.Some was sad and some was happy and big.

My favourite was probably Mercury.

I think I would like to make up a dance to these songs!

What do you picture when you hear these songs? How do they make you feel? Have a listen and leave us a message!

space

For this term we are leaning about space. There are alot of different planets in our Solar System. Such as : Mars, Mercury, Pluto, Uranus, Saturn and Earth!

In the galaxy there is also a sun, stars, moon and milky way. On some planets there are rings around them. All planets circle around the sun and one planet called pluto goes around on a diagonal route. Jupiter is one of the biggest planets in space.
Did you know the sun is just a middle size star and the stars are bigger then the moon?
You can't live in space because there is no oxygen to breathe in and there is not much gravity at all.

The Last Day

We have been on holidays for the last few weeks, which is why you haven't seen any posts from us lately. Before we went on our break Breanne wrote this recount of Jesus' death. But I forgot to post it. Sorry!
So from The Discovery class, Happy Belated Easter!
There's even a find-a-word at the end for you!
- Miss F
PS we're back at school from tomorrow so you'll be hearing alot more from us! This term is going to be a fun one: excursions, dress up days & sports days!

The Last Day
Jesus said to his disciples, "take this bread and brake it up in between you."
"Drink this whine as rememberence of me when I die on the cross."
So they did.
The next day he died just as he had said to his disciples.


?Why Did He Die On The Cross?
Jesus died on the cross to forgive our sins and to love us and care for us. All the whipping and pain Jesus would be in. But just remember Jesus did all of that just for us so we would have a happy life. The next day they put Jesus in a toom where he stayed.
The next day Mary came to the toom and the stone had rolled away from the entrence. So she peeped in and found nothing. She was quite frightened. She thought where is Jesus and started crying.
Then a voice said "it's ok Mary." 
She thought who is that so she looked around and saw Jesus.
What a relif!


A fun find-a-word for you to print and do at home :)
