Athletics Day

On Friday the whole school had an Athletics Day.  We all really enjoyed the different rotations and Room 15 wrote about our experiences in class this week.  Check out some of our amazing stories:

On Friday it was athletics and my group did the high jump and the parachute. When the athletics were finished we went to lunch to eat. When lunch was over we went to the court because we were going to watch the relays. When we watched the relays we saw Mia's uncle race in the blue team and we cheered for him. When the relay was finished we went back to class to pack up the class. After we packed up we went back home to have some rest because we were tired.

On Friday at school we did athletics. We did lots of different stations and then it was the time to have a race battle with our class.  There was one girl and she came first in all the races and she never gave up. When it was time to see the kids vs teachers my friends uncle came and he signed up and after lunch the kids vs teachers started and the whole school made some rows to watch the races. After the race finished they went in a line and they were walking like a champion because champions never give up.

Tasting the bread

Today we wrote about our experiences tasting the bread and talked about why they all look and taste different.  All our stories are on our blogs, but check out these couple of examples:

On Wednesday my class tasted lots of different types of bread. Before we were allowed to eat the breads we had to take some photos and then put the photos onto my Explain Everything. Then we get a plate and get all the different types of bread and tasted it and smell it and then you have to feel it. After I finished those three things I had to write the names of the breads and write in how it feels and what it tasted and what it feels like and then you are finished. My favourite bread will be ciabatta because that is the one that i really like eating at my house.

On Tuesday we had 6 different breads made of different ingredients. Their was pita bread and it was so hard. It was cheesy but it was so good when room 15 ate the bread and we wrote  the different  ingredients. My favourite bread was the White bread because it has got different ingredients than the other bread. 

Tasting bread

As part of our science inquiry this term, Room 15 looking at bread, building to making our own in a few weeks.

Today we were looking at different types of bread and comparing:

appearance - what it looks like

texture - what it feels like

taste - what it tastes like

Mrs Belt set up the activity so that we could use photographs to help document our learning.  Check out these photos of us as we compared the different breads:

Mask Making Term 3

In Term 3 during our Makerspace time we've been making masks.  All learners will be bringing these home early next term!  Check out some of the photos taken during the sessions over the term:

Room 15 trip to Te Tuhi

Today Room 15 had a great time visiting Te Tuhi.  We completed a great piece of geometric art and also had time to explore the gallery.  Thanks to our great parent helps - we can't have trips without your support!  Here are a few photos from our trip, and the learners have shared more of these photos on their individual blogs.

Lego Creations

On Friday it was unfortunately wet at lunchtime and we couldn't go outside to play.  Mrs Belt had bought some Lego into school and we had lots of fun making different things.  Mrs Belt was particularly impressed with how we took turns and shared.

When it was time to pack it away, some learners wanted to document their creations by using the iPad to take a photo.  Check out some of the great things that were created:
