Yoga

9/9/2020

 
During remote learning we have been completing weekly yoga sessions to keep our minds calm, to aid in concentration and help us to manage stress. This also benefits our flexibility, strength, coordination and body awareness.  
Namaste.

Japanese

14/7/2020

 
During term 3, CLC students will explore their Winter Wonderland theme in Japanese classes, learning to say some winter words. They will learn about the Japanese Winter Festival, read a Japanese story in a winter setting, make snow origami and more. 
冬Fuyu (winter in Japanese).

Procedural Writing

15/6/2020

 
​Students explored procedural writing, when they created their own super salad sandwich and then wrote their individual recipe.  Students used writing lessons to describe their experience through their senses – What can I see / smell / feel / taste?  We all had fun gobbling up our healthy salad sandwich.  

Writing - Fruit Kebabs

14/2/2020

 

We made fruit kebabs and wrote about what we saw, smelt and tasted.
​

Unbelievable bursts of flavour attack my mouth as I take my first crunchy bite into my sweet as sugar watermelon.  Delicious. Extraordinary energy bursts through my body. Wide, wonderful, watery, watermelon explodes in my mouth sending healthy vitamins throughout my body. 
 
Summer fruit is the best in summer.  Pineapples, peaches, plums juicy and colourful and begging to be eaten.  I carefully choose my favourite fruits and spear each piece onto my sharp wooden skewer.

Silent Reading

5/2/2020

 

What are you reading today – mystery, humour, a graphic novel? CLC students love to read and we do it every day. We are developing our love of books and stories and deepening our understanding of what we are reading.

Exploring MAB

31/1/2020

 

Students get excited to learn maths. We are using MAB Base 10 sets to show students the relationship between ones, tens, hundreds and thousands. They are a great resource to learn concepts including addition, subtraction, place value and counting.
