Recount Writing - WW1

In Room 10, we've been working on adding more detail to our writing by using our senses and recrafting our sentences so that there is more than one idea in them. 

We watched a short video called Canada's 100 days and we had to imagine as if we were there, a soldier battling for our country. 

Some of us worked with Mrs Faalili to enhance our paragraphs and used visualisation to really think about what we could see and hear around us.

Here are some of the amazing drafts that some of the awesome students in Room 10 came up with. 

Be sure to check out the individual blogs for more amazing recounts. 

Matariki Kites with Rm 3

For buddy class, we did some learning about Matariki, the Maori New Year. Together, we designed our own kites. We used kebab sticks, tape, black paper to make the kite and then used pastels (gold, white and silver) and read and white feathers to decorate them. Then we got to fly them. We had so much fun making and flying our kites.

Geometry learning

We've been exploring 3D shapes and learning how to describe them by using words such as 'face' 'vertices' and 'edges. Here is Olive & Demitrius' work about 3D shapes. They've used google drawing to show their learning.
