Behind the News

Science Week

Grade 3/4’s has been writing and watching B.T.N, which stands for Behind The News. One of the episodes we have watched talked about Science Week. Primary school students Ella and Gigi from another school were investigating as to why onions make you cry. Another student, William also had an investigation as to why is seaweed brown.


Our Grade 3/4 class loves watching BTN and if you too would like to find out these answers then visit our Grade 3/4 Wiki and select the 3rd term B.T.N. and click on the website.

Pentathlon

The grade 3/4s have been watching a show for kids called BTN (Behind The News.) The episode I liked the most was the Pentathlon Siblings – Episode #22. It was about a brother and sisters, who are both athletes wishing to compete in the 2016 Olympics.


They wanted to compete for a sport called pentathlon, events that are necessary for soldier to enlist in the army. The events include running, swimming, shooting, horse riding and fencing. The brother and sister are really good at it.


Following this we had to answer five questions after we had watched it working with a partners. The people who had the best work had it copied onto the quality work wall.

Hiroshima

This term the grade ¾ has been watching BTN. It is a website about the worlds news for kids and it is a very friendly website for kids. 

In third week of BTN we watched news about 70th anniversary of the first nuclear bomb attacked in Japan in Hiroshima, which was in World War II. It also old told us about a little girl who experienced the 1st nuclear bomb. Her name was Sadako.
