Spotlight on Flynn, Sarah, Amy, Elliot and Matt A

We have been looking at Creatures that live in and around New Zealand as part of our focus on all things Kiwi. Here are a few of the quick profiles some of the students have made of their work.
Here is Flynn's work on the Hoiho.



Sarah and Amy's work.




Elliot and Matt A's



The class are learning skills about accessing reliable information.

Writing

We spent a bit of time outside yesterday identifying all the features in our playground that could help set a scene outside. The children came up with some excellent descriptive words. It was especially great because there was a slight mist hanging around Te Mata Peak which really captured the students attention.

Homework

We've been putting up a bunch of the class homework on the wall down the back of here class. This is the work that was able to be printed off. I've also seen some great videos too!

Here is a picture of that work.

Lauren also made an excellent educational game about kiwiana. The class has had some great fun answering the questions she developed. Brilliantly presented as well.

And here are a couple of snaps of the class in technology today as well.

Kei te pehea koe?

Today in Te Reo we were looking at the phrase "Kei te pehea koe?" and supplying a variety of answers. Here are some rather over the top versions of the answers we looked at. ENJOY!!!
