Team 2 is made up of the Sky Room with Miss Clifford and the Forest Room with Miss D. Each room functions as their own routinely structured classroom in which the key areas of Literacy and Numeracy take place. As a team both classes enjoy sessions together where the children read and work together in pairs and groups to discover, learn and share from and with each other.

Team 2 Technology -Paper making in Room 7
We have had to solve problems along the way to making our paper.
We used old picture frames and had to stretch the shade cloth net as tight as we could and staple it to the picture frames.
We discovered that only newspaper mushed up into a nice paper pulp to dip our frames into. Coloured paper and even white treated paper would not blend into a suitable watery pulp.
We are now having fun trying adding extras like small leaves and flower petals to our paper during the process. We are also enjoying making our paper into usable objects such as notebooks and gift cards.
