Hi Room 3!
We have a new feature on our blog called search engines. A search engine is a way you can search the internet and ask questions.
I have suggested a great search engine for you to use that is designed especially for kids! It's called Kid Rex and its a great way for you search away safely - of course Mum and Dad always enjoy helping you on the computer so ask them to come and sit with you while you find the answers to all those questions you have!
We will all be using Kid Rex over the next few weeks to help us with our science topic as well so you will be search engine experts before you know it!

Friday Fun Day!
Last Friday, 30 March, Room 3 and the whole of Halcombe School had two special surprises in the afternoon after the Sausage Sizzle. We guessed and guessed all morning about what the surprises could be, but no one had any idea until we saw the fire trucks turn up at the end of lunch time! There were four fire fighters that came to see us and to tell us all about the special race they are doing up the Sky Tower in Auckland.
We learnt all about how to stay safe at home and found out the most important thing you can do if there is a fire is to have a plan of how to get out of your house safely. Then Toby and Azi were allowed to try on the fire fighters' gear to understand how hard it will be to run up the stairs of the Sky Tower. It was SO heavy!
Before they left the fire fighters wanted to see if we could guess how far the water in the big hose could go. Georjia, Logan, Tyler, Will and Jakob had a go at guessing, but soon realised that if they guessed right that they were going to get wet!
The second part of our surprise was all about Easter! We got to hang out with our buddy class and wish each other Easter messages, before giving each other an Easter Egg!It was a really fun way of spending the last Friday of the term!

Explanation Writing - How to wash you hands
This is how you wash your hands, you have to wash your hands to keep yourself healthy and stop the spread of germs.
First you turn on the tap. Secondly you wet your hands under the water and rub them together. Then you push the lever on the soap container on the wall. After, quickly put your hand under the container. Now there is soap in the middle of your hand.
Next you rub your hands together under the water and then you rub between your fingers. After that you rub the back of one hand with the palm of the other hand, then you swap over your hands.
Now you re-rinse your hands to double check there is no more soap left on your hands. Remember to turn off the tap before you dry your hands. Lastly, you pull a paper towel out of the paper towel machine on the wall, but not too many! Then with the paper towel you rub it against your hands to dry them. Next you put the towel in the rubbish bin.
Now you have finished the job of washing your hands. Your hands are now germ free and clean!
