Boys and Girls Education
On the 4th of June 2010, term 2, all the Grade 6’s were starting Brotherhood and Sisterhood education (Survivor Challenge). Everyone was told they were all receiving a T-shirt with a label in the middle, the colour of their label was depending on which coloured teams they all were in. We also received coloured Hats, and the colour of them also depended on which coloured team you were in. The teams and colours are:6AH is green with their team name, then 6RG with their colour as Yellow and their team name, then goes 6JC with their team colour as Blue, and their team name, then the last grade 6 class is, 6NF with their team colour as Red, and their team name as well. The first week was BBQ and Design, Week 2 Masterchef- Cupcake Challenge (boys aganist Girls) Then Finalist’s go to Taste Test Challenge!

P.E – Basketball
For the last few weeks 6AH and all of the other Grade 6 grades have been learning Basketball skills. For the last fortnight of the Basketball program all the kids will be split up into teams of about 8 people. My team is Tevan, Lucas, Jake F, Jake K, JD, Liam, Paul and I. We won our first game 15-6 but we lost the rest of the games by a lot of points. But otherwise, it was a lot of fun testing your skills in a game of Basketball and I think everyone had some fun.

2D & 3D Shapes By Tevan Nofi
Wednesday the 17th we learnt about 2d and 3d shapes. First we name 2d shapes 1 to 20 sides and vertices. They had some tricky names like icosagon. We had to draw irreguar shapes which were 11 to 20 sides and vertices on dot paper. You could draw anything you like as long as it was 2d and have the right sides and vertices. I enjoyed learning the names of different shapes and how many vertices they have.

Mad Day by Taylah Finn
On Mad day it was about looking after our plants. Most of the grade sixes got a role of leading the little kids around. All of the leaders got a name and it was somewhere in our school. The activities were Painting Pebbles, Create a Creature, Enviromental Bingo, Leaf Rubbings, Find the Plant and Read and Draw. It was a full on day, it was also hot and the little kids were getting a little restless. It was very fun and we had to be careful that we didnt leave any kids behind. It was really good.

2D Shapes
2D Shapes – by Paul Clay
On the 15th of February we did a maths rotation in our class with Miss McRae. There was four activites in the rotation. The first activity I did was with the tangrams. We got to make a picture out of the shapes, and then name them. The second activity was with the Construct-O-Straws. We got to connect the straws together to make 2D shapes. After you made a shape, you had to draw it in your math book with its name, how many sides it had, how many vertices it had and how many angles the shape had. In the third activity, you got to colour in the shapes in the picture. For example, all of the circles could have been coloured blue. In the last activity, you trace around 2D shapes and then list the shape’s name, sides, vertices and inner-angles.
