Extra excitement to end the week with the Family Day tomorrow, I look forward to seeing you all tomorrow ready for games, treats and excitement.
There was also a lots of fun and excitement in our class as Mr Morgan organized a competition to see which team could make the best tropical fruit drink. Firstly, the students tasted different fruits to see which they liked and which fruits would work well together. Next, the students planned their drinks, designed a label, and created a persuasive presentation for our expert judges. Finally, they made their drink, printed their labels added these to cups and presented them to the judges. The children had so much fun this week, it was great to see a lot of thought and creativity around each task.
All of this tied in nicely with our current English unit on persuasive writing, the children spent some time looking at different persuasive devices. Then they created their own slogan, took photos of their product so they could then create a persuasive poster which included some hyperbole. The students for very carefully about how to take a photo to add to their poster using the outdoor space to create something appealing.
That’s all for this week, see you all tomorrow!
