Brain Challenge: Survivor Day 4

This has probably been the hardest of the Brain Challenges so far!

Teams had to read a poem and then use coordinates to identify letters on a map.  Once they had found all of the letters they had to rearrange them to create two words - these words would help them find the treasure on the map!

Survivor Physical Challenge Day 3

Our third physical challenge had us sitting on imaginary chairs outside.  In teams of two we had to lean against the classroom wall and keep our legs at a 90 degree angle to imitate sitting on a chair.  Teams were disqualified for not following the instructions or receiving 3 warnings.  Team members had to encourage each other because if one member dropped out the other team member had to forfeit as well. By the end of the challenge there were only two teams that earned points - a tough and painful challenge!

Survivor Physical Challenge Day 2

The physical challenge involved one member from each team holding onto a mesh fence using only hands and feet for the longest time.  The first player dropped out after only 56 seconds but the winning player lasted over 22 minutes!!!

The winner of the challenge was Kaleb!

School Cross Country

Last Tuesday our school held its Cross Country event.  Our class gets right behind this by dressing up and having a blast!

Facial Expressions

Our very last Art piece for term three focussed on facial expressions.  We studied cartoon-like expressions from the internet and then replicated them on four figures.  We were able to choose to colour with pastel or paint or a combination of the two.
