Year 3 - A Day Learning, Studying, Researching, Thinking, Drawing, Udderstanding - THE PICASSO COW

Year 3 were immersed in learning for a whole day - cows, dairy, Picasso, health, writing,
reading, thinking and exploring.

Students were thoroughly engaged all day.

Some may say, "A COW OF A DAY!"

Year 1 learn about MOO Cows.

Year 1 students had a cowtastic lesson about cows.

This is what some of the students said...

“I learnt how to milk a cow.” - PJ Veleski

“I learnt milk makes yoghurt and butter and it all comes from a cow.” - Ashleigh O’Rafferty

“To make butter you mix the milk which turns into cream and you keep mixing it and it turns into butter.” Delilah Hicks

“Boys have 2 servings of dairy a day.” Jake Proctor

“Girls have 1 and 1/2 servings of dairy a day.” Madeleine Pulver

Enjoy these photos of the students in Year 1.

Some responses of what 1L learnt from their Dairy/cow lesson:

Mahalia – “Milk only comes from certain types of cows and chocolate milk does not come from brown cows.”

Steph – “If you do not have enough calcium then your bones are no very strong and they can break easily.”

Joel – “Milk from cows can be used to make cheese.”

Victoria – “Cows make milk and when you shake and shake milk for a long time you can make butter.”

Zach – “Boys need 2 serves of calcium every day.”

Fun times and heaps of learning.  

Setting the Scene.

We are off and running.

Here are some photos of what is happening around the Junior Scmool.
The students are really excited. We certainly have 'cow fever'.

Year 6 worked in groups to learn about the importance of calcium.

Seven groups were set up to allow the students to explore various aspects of cows, calcium, how the cow produces milk, how the milk comes to be in the shop, advertising the need to consume milk and creating a song about milk and dairy products. 

Here are the students researching and working on their tasks. 

These are the final products.

Group 1 - A Cow Mobile-20 facts about cows.

Group 2 - Flow Chart - How Do Cows Produce Milk?

Group 3 - Flow Chart - How Does the Milk get from the Cow to the Shops?

Group 4 - An Advertisement - Create a Magazine Advertisement for a Dairy Product.

Group 5 - A Song - Create a Song about Why it is Necessary to Consume Milk Products.

Group 6 - Menu - Create a Menu for a Day that contains Milk Products.

Group 7 - Create a Poster about Calcium in our Diets - Research the Facts.

The students now know so much more about the Legendairy Industry.
