The Week It Was

A normal school week.
Well as normal as you can at BBI.
The start of all our period 5 activities. Bring on the out of class time activities.
One main highlight was Mr Barrow deconstructing Mrs Mitchell's camp bag. He had a lot of very interesting clothes. I hope that you were listening and have everything ready for camp.

Have a look if you want to see where your son or daughter is heading.

A look into Week 4

Another busy has passed by in Team B with lots of learning happening in so many different ways.
Check out our slide show for the week. See us working on Statistics doing an M&M investigation, have a look at our swimming safety programme at Lloyd Elsmore to prepre us for camp. Habits of Mind teach us about our thinking as we think about knowing what to do and how to behave when we don't have the answer. School swimming sports was a fantastic day and we also spent time setting up our e-portfolios using KnowledgeNet. Whew! We sure did have a busy week!!!!
