Assembly Song

Hi Room 16, here is the song we are learning for our assembly. Please practise it when you have time.



I love the mountains,
I love the clear blue skies,
I love big bridges,
I love when great whites fly.
I love the whole world And all its sights and sounds.

Boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada.

I love the oceans,
I love real dirty things,
 I love to go fast,
 I love Egyptian kings.
I love the whole world And all its craziness.

Boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada.

I love tornadoes,
I love arachnids,
 I love hot magma,
I love the giant squids,
I love the whole world It´s such a brilliant place

Boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada. Boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada. Boom-de-yada, boom-de-yada.......

Making Inferences

Our group is learning about making inferences. We looked at the picture and said what we could see. Then we asked questions about what we saw. Finally we used the clues to make inferences about what we thought was happening in the picture.

It was fun using Popplet to record our ideas.

Can you make an inference about the picture using specific clues?

Can you make a prediction about what you think will happen next?
