Year 1 Shared Breakfast
2.7.2015
Today we had a shared breakfast with all the year one students and their families. It was fantastic to see lots of parents socialising and getting to know one another. The children enjoyed eating their breakfast with their friends and performing a couple of short items. Thanks again for coming and for bringing such delicious food, the children ate very well!
Integrated Topic
Term 2
This term we have been learning about Motion. We are learning to describe how & why something has or will move.
We went to the AirForce Museum and learned about flight. In class we did a number of experiments to see how things move.
We found out that pushes and pulls can make things start or stop moving and that different sized objects move in different ways.
We learned
- words relating to movement, eg twist, spin, swing, slide, swerve, hop, jump, turn, fast, slow, push, and pull.
words and phrases for making comparisons of movement eg go faster, go slower, go further
words related to movement eg direction, distance, force
comparative expressions eg further, furthest, fast, faster, fastest, slow, slower, slowest, higher

Lyrics
Hey you, back against the wall
Wondering if the world'll fall apart
Hey you, crying in your drink
Looking for an answer, just open your heart
You can find it anywhere
You can find it anywhere
You can find it anywhere
You can find it anywhere
You can find it anywhere
Sing, it's your favorite song
When you're singing along nothing is wrong
Everybody just sing for the people who can't
It'll help them survive, we are free and alive
Everybody just sing
Hey girl, what's the matter now?
Feeling like each day it's something else
Hey you, wading in the shallow
Looking for a reason, found it in yourself
You can find it anywhere
You can find it anywhere
You can find it anywhere
You can find it anywhere
You can find it anywhere
Sing, it's your favorite song
When you're singing along nothing is wrong
Everybody just sing for the people who can't
It'll help them survive, we are free and alive
Everybody just sing

When you're singing along nothing is wrong
Everybody just sing for the people who can't
It'll help them survive, we are free and alive
Everybody just sing, it's the secret revealed
If you wanna get real, if you wanna feel
Everybody just sing for the people who can't
It'll help them survive, it'll keep 'em alive
Everybody just sing
Come on and sing
Wondering if the world'll fall apart
Hey you, crying in your drink
