Enviro Day
May Road School is an Enviro School. To help improve our environment, each class undertook a project. Room 2 decided to paint a mural on the concrete block wall of our deck. As we are learning about plants and gardening throughout the year - and painting- we thought it would be a good idea to paint a mural of a garden scene. We were so fortunate to have some volunteers from SPARK help us and Geri too. We had so much FUN and painted a beautiful picture!

Primary Science Week
This week was Primary Science Week and the topic was soil. Classes did a soil experiment using soil from our school grounds. Brian organised the equipment for us all. He put some soil in a jar. We added water, stirred it all up and then left it to settle. What will happen?

| Sharing ideas with a partner |
We thought about what might happen (prediction) and then thought of some questions to ask so we could learn more about soil (scientists ask questions)

| Look at the stratification!

Art
Room 2 children are learning to paint and so we need to learn about colours. To help us, we painted colour wheels. Mrs. Swain put out the 3 primary colours - red, yellow and blue - for us to use. We had to mix the primary colours to make secondary colours (orange, purple, green).
