Welcome Back Everybody!

Welcome back everybody!  Term 4 is going to be a busy and fun-filled term.  We will be finishing our Myths, Magic and Mysteries Inquiry over the next two weeks, with a celebration Magic Show at the end.  We will also be completing our Big Questions and working at using rubrics to assess your own work.

The other really exciting news is that we are going to be planting out our very own kitchen garden bed today!  🙂  Mr Mcleod has bought all the plants we asked for and we will be putting them into the bed after lunch today.  We need to take on jobs to make sure we look after the bed and take regular photos to put on this and your own blogs to show the progress.

Lovely to have you all back in Room 6!  What do you think of the new furniture arrangement?  I’d like us to keep the tables as twos for the first week at least, just as a trial…. 🙂

 

 

Characteristics of a Magic Show

Watch these video clips of magic shows to identify the characteristics of a magic show. 

You will need to write these as dot points on your T-chart.

Please notice the different types of tricks used too.

Then you will be working with your group to choose different magic tricks which will make a good magic show to perform for an audience.

OUR CELEBRATION MAGIC SHOW

Magic_Show_ICONParents, please put a reminder in your diary or on your calendar that our class Celebration Magic Show will be next week on Thursday at 2.30 p.m.  Invitations will be coming home next week and I’m sure that you will have lots of enthusiastic magicians practising this weekend and scouring the dress-up box for ‘Magicians’ or “Wizard or Sorcerer” outfits.  Students can dress up as a modern magician or an olden days wizard with a wand.  This inquiry has focused on literature and this will be the drama and performance element.  We will rehearse our magic acts on Wednesday afternoon with PP1 as our eager audience.  🙂
