Welcome to week 7 =) 2nd-5th June



Kia ora - and to all a great Queen's Birthday Weekend.

Week 6 was a great week in room 7 - we are getting information for our information reports. Completing our chimp flying into space stories.

We loved our hockey session on Thursday - and I was really impressed with the sportsmanship.
After the fun games of hockey the children congratulated each other - how awesome is that!!

We had a fantastic Mandarin (Chinese) lesson on Friday - Zhangzhang brought in chopsticks and taught the children to hold them. They had to pick up a wooden block and had a game (race) to put the most blocks in a container.
ANGUS won!


On Wednesday we have some visitors in our school - they will be looking at how we use IT in the classroom. Room 7 will be showing their iPad/laptop skills. The children are busy getting information about a natural disaster. They are working in pairs - so they are researching information into their own words. Then they will present the information using either keynote, puppet pals, picCollage or in book creator. The children are working in pairs and this helps them share their skills, knowledge and relationships of working with another person.

I hope you enjoyed your child reading to you this week:
SHARP STUDENTS - well done to Phoebe & Daisy. They both chose to wear mufti clothes. =)
