Hey Everyone,
I'm going to share some of the amazing learning tasks Room 11 students have been working on during lockdown. You'll find below some Daily 5 tasks and a Cybersmart challenge completed by Tracey, Catherine & Sar Yar Chan.
We hope everyone is staying in their bubbles and taking care of themselves.
Feel free to check out individual student blogs (you can find the links to their blogs on the right panel) and post a comment on some of the informative and amazing work they've produced.
Regards,
Room 11 champions!
Hi Everyone,
Today our class went for our first bike skills lesson. We have an amazing bike track at school and each class has an opportunity to use. We went through the helmet safety first (with our teacher Mrs Tupou Fonua) and help from our classroom expert on bikes - Dontae.
Here are some photos for you to enjoy.
Where has the year gone?
We're back for Term 3 and ready for some new learning. Every morning before the school bell rings, we come into class and complete our Quick Write that Mirs Tupou-Fonua writes up on the board. Here are the early birds enjoying a good talanoa with each other and working on our quick write piece of writing.
Week 9.
One more week to go before the end of Term 2. Our school is having Tamariki Korero. This is an opportunity for students to lead a talanoa/conversation about their learning with their Whanau. They share and talk about the artwork displayed around the class, their class sites they created for camp (including content about camp the learners had researched about) and their LCS passion projects.
Here is a photo of some of our learners sharing about their learning journey so far for 2021, with their lovely mothers.
In Week 4 (Monday 24th of May - Friday 28th of May), the Y7&8 classes from GTS went to Kawau Island for our Senior School Camp. We absolutely loved it. For many of us, it was our first time away from home so it was frightening but the FUN times outweighed that.
We got to go kayaking, sailing, raft-building, orienteering, rock-climbing and abseiling.
On Wednesday night, we had to do a Burma Trail through the bushes and on Thursday night, we had a FIAFIA night. Our students were organised into groups and each group performed a dance performance and came up with a chant!
There was a big group of us who went. 12 teachers/staff members and 63 students.
Here are some photos of how camp went for us!!!
This Term, Room 11 has made a commitment to learn more Te Reo and about Te Ao Maori. Every morning we begin our day with our classroom paepae. We have someone to lead our Karakia Timatanga, then we have someone who acknowledges the karakia and continues to share the Kupu o Te Ra and Whakatauki for the week.
Here is a slide of what we go through!
