Having Fun with Slings

At the end of Term Two Room 7 had a guest speaker Mrs Sutton who is a nurse.  She talked to us about her life in the field of medicine.  Early this term she sent us in some slings, we had a lot of fun pretending we had broken arms and wearing slings even though our arms weren’t broken.  This showed us what it would be like to have a broken arm or hand. Room 7 had to put the sling on the hand that they usually work with and use their other hand to write and work.  Here are some pictures we would like to show you.

"I'm feeling something is not quite right here!"



Speeches!!!!

Speeches began today in room 7.
" The bright eyes of Room 7 made us red in the face, nervous and nearly speechless.  The thought of mucking up made us shiver like an earthquake.  Our hearts were beating as fast a lightning flashes.  In the end we were happy with our results and got lots of surprises and feedback."

Lovely Laptops

At the beginning of this term the laptops were put into our classes on a permanent basis.  We love this.  It helps us with all our subjects and means we can access information really quickly.

"I would like more of them"  Ellyse
