Welcome back to 6th Class blog. A new week, a new year. One week down and already 6th Class have been extremely busy. The first week is always the toughest as it takes time to get used to early mornings, new rules, getting organised and getting back into homework! But the girls are adjusting great and taking the role of 6th Class very seriously indeed.
The girls got to know each other again with a nice SPHE activity, “All About Me”. We also composed Acrostic Poems, “Back To School”. These will be displayed in our Start of Year scrapbook.
We also enjoyed a Science lesson on Sound. Without realising it, the girls discovered that their hearing, as children, is a lot better than an adult. I played a video to demonstrate pitch, but I thought it wasn’t working as I couldn’t hear it. However, it became obvious that the class could hear it as they covered their ears! Children and adults have different hearing ranges. Did you know that Volume is measured in Decibels (dB) and the pitch is recorded in Hertz (Hz).
Here are some pictures of a contented class after one week.
