Transition Morning Cl4

This morning the current years fours have come into Class 4 for our transition morning. It has been a wonderful opportunity for the children to reacquaint and for the year fours to get to know both myself and Mrs Magee.

They were provided with the challenge to use certain resources to create bridges. The bridges were then tested in a competition to see which could hold the most amount of objects. 

Before we began, the children identified key characteristics of bridges. They said that they need to:

  • Be strong
  • Be balanced
  • Be secured to the ground
  • Be big enough to hold lots of objects

The challenge required them to work successfully and a team. We discussed what this would require and the children suggested that they needed to:

  • Listen to and value the ideas of others 
  • Take turns
  • Not be bossy 
  • Make sure everyone contributeDSCN1376[1].JPG

I am very proud of how well the children worked together. They certainly displayed many of our secrets of success.
