So we've been researching and learning heaps about Australian animals. We wrote down the information we gathered and Mr. Hewes put it all into a presentation that we've been referring to in class. It became apparent that we're quickly running out of time as we head toward the end of term, so we decided we should start making our paper slide videos for the Promise Road Kinder Panthers.
This means that we have had to learn more stuff in order to make our videos.
After revising some of what we knew about Australian animals, we watched a few videos in class and discussed all of the things we needed to know and do to make our own videos as awesome as possible. You can see our classroom cinema set up below, Mr. Hewes really should have set up the bean bags like he did last time, what a meanie!
We'll get to set up the cinema again, probably when we've finished our own videos so that we can watch them and celebrate our learning.

The first video we watched was an Indigenous Australian dreamtime story about how the platypus became the wonderful creature that we know and love today. You can see it below.
We then watched a paper slide video made by some year 1 kids in America. This helped us understand what a paper slide video is and that even younger kids can make them too.
We then watched a quick video on how to make a paper slide video of our own.
