...Weet-Bix! Yum!

Scroll through and look at each picture in the "Harvesting" slideshow. Please click on the arrows:

What do you think it means to "harvest"?

Can you think of a Bible story where wheat or harvest is mentioned? Look in your Bibles to see if you can find a harvesting picture.

In Israel in Bible times, everyone was familiar with wheat and harvesting. God used this harvesting idea to teach some important lessons:

People who give their lives to God are like wheat being gathered in at harvest.
God sends us blessings that we can gather, just like a farmer gathers a harvest. We can pass these blessings on.

WE ARE LEARNING THAT GOD LOVES TO "HARVEST" PEOPLE INTO HIS FAMILY. In your Bible books, draw what you think this means!

BUT, what if you couldn't harvest crops due to drought?

What would drought mean to people who have to grow their own food?

Look through these slides to see what drought can look like.

3-7-Media-Drought.pptx

All together on this Y chart, describe what a drought/famine would look like, sound like and feel like.

The famine was so bad in Canaan that some Israelites traveled a long way to the land of Moab, where there was no drought.

We are going to learn more about one family who left Israel during one of these famines.

It is a story of sadness and job, death and birth, drought and famine, family and home, hope, love and loyalty, wheat harvest, blessings and redemption.

Reading

Learning content:

read different types of texts using what you have learnt about letters and sounds, and by making sure that the words you read make sense by checking the meaning of the story

recognise and compare different kinds of texts, understanding why they were written and what they are about

be able to explain why you enjoy reading different types of text

Participate in reading activities given by your teacher (reading cards, reading groups, Article-a-Day or independent reading).

As you read your reading cards, or Article-a-Day, or your own book, think about what connections you can make with things in your own life or other books you have read, and see if that helps you to understand better what the author is talking about.

Maths

Task One

Task Two

Revise what was learnt last lesson. Students write their own definition for volume individually. Students then get into groups of 4 and write a group definition for volume. The class then works together to write our class definition for volume which will be printed out and displayed in the classroom.

Video

Volume intro: how we measure volume | Math (video) | Khan AcademySal introduces volume and compares it to length and area. He also introduces cube units.

Research: Students are given ten minutes to research the robot that they would like to create. Students will be shown the cubes that we will use to measure the volume of their robot and the grid paper that we will use to create their robot, therefore, the robot will need to have all parts made out of cubes and rectangles.

Planning: Students use their scrap book to draw a draft of their robot. Ask students to consider the overall size of the robot along with the individual sizes for each part of their robot. Once the drawing is complete students are given a practice pre drawn robot leg to construct before drawing their own on grid paper. Discuss with students why the rectangle looks larger on paper than it does as a 3D image.

PE - Fitness running or...

AFL

Ball drills such as kicking to each other and hand passes will be conducted prior to playing a game.

The teacher will sit down with their group and go through the rules of the game and how to play. Once all students are clear on how to play/the expectations you will have a game with the teacher refereeing.
