Philosophy for Children inquiry- Is it ever ok to make a sacrifice? Very mature discussion from 5/6. Focus on caring thinking and building communication skills- had to order themselves by the size of their favourite animals without speaking... some great actors!

@throoughmyeyes @DrSarahMcNab Thank you! Now all four of us are positive, but one asymptomatic 2 year old and the rest of us have mild symptoms. At least we are well enough to do some work from home ☺️

@throoughmyeyes @DrSarahMcNab I am also a teacher- tested negative Sunday night. Did another test last night and my son and I are both positive 🤦🏻‍♀️ One day I lasted! 😭

@LaurenFryer @CampbelltownPS @CFlamos And they did! And got best on field for their amazing behaviour! I had a number of teachers say how beautifully behaved they were! Amazing work CPS

@LaurenFryer @CampbelltownPS @CFlamos @Charlen33794901 @JulietMabon @HannahW46688654 @Johnsy0701 I had the same thing- all the kids deciding and calculating how many days/weeks it would take them to earn what they wanted- so cute ☺️

I may be short on space in my classroom but I’m hoping my new Stage 2 class will like “our reading oasis”- I can’t wait to try it out!

@BurningBunnies @jmp022871 I’m reading it at the moment and loving it! Can I ask- is there a reason behind your use of the word ‘twining’? You use it a lot and I was just curious of your choice.

@Bec_Eyles @CampbelltownPS There will be a big hole that will be very hard to fill Bec xx

Attempting to measure the area of the basketball court with nought but our bodies (and then measuring our body parts to complete the calculations) to see who was the most accurate... highly entertaining and challenging @CampbelltownPS @Anna75732855
