BEE BOT CHALLENGE

Today was the first day of our three week Bee Bot Challenge. We thought Bee Bots were just little toys the little kids played with.

Well we learned today how getting those little beetles to do what you want is a lot harder than you think.

We had some challenges we need to complete. These will prepare us to complete the final challenge.

Today we just had to practice telling our Bee Bots what to do. This is called programming the Bee Bots.

This programming is a simpler version of what real computer programmers do.

It was HARD. Really HARD FUN!

We had the ipads to help us photograph, video, make music and keep notes.

Kindergarten are getting into the hang of Writing and Reading.

They can recognise, name and sound many letters of the alphabet.

They practice their alphabet everyday and all are practising writing their names on the Daily Sign In sheet.

Drawing helps us with adding detail to our writing

Countries, people and animals of Africa animals have been the focus of our class work in the last part of this term.

In our Writing Stars Group we have been working on writing about a variety of African animals.

To help us with developing descriptive words we took a lesson on drawing some well known African animals. We watched a youtube video and followed the instructions of the artist.
