Week 7 - Busy, busy, busy!

This week we have been thinking about what would happen if we had to move to Mars. Did you know that Mars has huge wind and dust storms? We were challenged to create a living pod for when we first landed that can withstand a huge storm (the class fan). We can only use straws, tape and paper. Here are a few pictures showing us at the beginning stages.

Alodia, Zoe and Lillia concentrating on the foundation.
Devon, Olly and Digby making a solid base.

Mal, our music specialist has been teaching us about rhythms and keeping a beat. 


Salma creating her own rhythm.

We have started 2 weeks of swimming lessons. Its all about how to be safe in the water.

Learning to float for an extended period of time.
Not as easy as it looks.
 

One of our amazing coaches showing us how to scull water. Much faster when moving through the water than a doggy paddle.
