Cross Country

By -
Next Wednesday is our school cross country. We are training to get faster. When we get puffed we walk fast until we are ready to start running again.
 

Today while we were training we had a very special spectator - a fantail! It was flying so fast around us as we ran that it nearly flew straight into Eva.
Take a look at our vimeo to see us training and our little fantail friend.

We created our own class treaty to symbolize how our class is a friendly and supportive learning environment.

Everyday we have swimming. We have people who are learning to get their faces wet by playing ring-a-rosie. Some of us are learning to kick so the water bubbles. And some of us are learning to do freestyle without splashing the water by cupping our hands. On Fridays we get to practice our swimming by having free time. It is fun! Today we made a whirlpool. We made it go fast and it started dragging us. Then we went the other way. It was hard because the water was pushing us back. When we finished the water was pushing us along.
