I Went Walking - in Sign Language

In assembly today we performed the Beautiful Solider song from our previous post and we presented this book called I Went Walking. All the children in Room 4 helped to read and sign the book. Pascoe, Emma, Arnika and Porsche made the book in the Book Creator App on the iPad.

Sign Language Session

This week is NZ Sign Language week and we were lucky enough to have Evelyn come and teach us some basic signs such as the abc, numbers and animals. We also read a book in sign and signed a lovely song called Beautiful Solider.
We're going to keep practicing signing the book so we can sign it to everyone in assembly next week.
The first video below shows us going through the signing for the ABC and the second video is us signing the Beautiful Solider song, which is about the solider's dying in the war.

Storyboard

Last week we did some learning using a storyboard. A storyboard is a bit like a comic strip. It tells the story of something by mostly using pictures and only a few words. We made a three frame storyboard showing something that we learned about the World War One and ANZAC Day. Here is Liam and Jordan's Storyboard and a short clip of them explaining what they did as well as Pascoe and Heidi sharing a bit of their storyboard.
