Educational video for kids: How Paper Is Made



We are learning about Sustainability for our Inquiry unit this term. Here is a great video about how paper is made and the importance of reducing our paper usage.

Whoops! Bit of a surprise today with the worm farm - I came home to find a couple of them had escaped!
I have fixed the gap and hopefully
there won't be any more escapees! 
There are lots of new worm castings so
things seem to be going ok so far.

I can't believe it is nearing the end of my teacher training. What a full on and rewarding year I have had so far. I have really enjoyed being placed in one classroom all year and really getting to know the students. 

One last placement coming up with lots of exciting things happening!

We are looking at Sustainability through Inquiry as well as learning to play the ukulele! Ukulele's in the classroom are so much fun! I learnt how to play last year and it has been great to be able to bring out the ukulele in class and sing with the students.

The link below has some great free resources including a Teacher's Resource Book.
