Science
This term, Cobalt got another teacher for Science, Miss Marcus, who is an expert in STEM and has been lovely enough to offer us her lab at school. In this lesson, students worked on dividing mixtures using different tools. They had to problem solve on using the most appropriate tool to separate different mixtures. Cobalt absolutely loved doing this activity.
Writing
Students in Cobalt have become little researchers since Term 2. They worked in groups to complete a research project on animals and they have now moved on to one of the natural disasters, Cyclones. They have produced amazing artworks and information and showed great collaboration strategies.
Animal Research Project
Students in Cobalt have become research experts during their first animal research project. They worked wonderfully in groups on researching facts about a given animal using technology. Students were given absolute freedom to coordinate work among themselves. They then presented their findings to the whole class. Cobalt absolutely enjoyed this task as part of their informative writing in English.
Lions
Here is a photo of our finished Animal Research Project! Lions absolutely rocked it! They produced a beautiful poster with great facts and concise information. Students were very happy with their presentation and completed material.
