Term Two's Immersion Assembly

The theme for this term is ‘I Like Your Latitude’.  It’s all about knowing where we are, where we’re going, and how we’re going to get there.  Team One are looking at the problem of why bees are dying, and will find pathways for bees to be safe and will find the quickest and safest way for a bee to get to it’s hive.  We will also create pathways for people to follow, using words such ‘left, right, up, down, turn’.   

To introduce our inquiry, Team One teachers made an amazing video.  We hope you like it.

IMMERSION ASSEMBLY #1

Today we had our immersion assembly.  It was amazingly fantastic!  (well – perhaps not amazingly, cos we’re all just amazing all the time!).  Here is a photo, and a short video, of the awesome robot Mr J. made.

 
As well as the Senior Management Team getting creative, each teaching team created a video or stage presentation to introduce what their students would be doing in Term Two.  It was so much fun!

What we love to do.

We hope you enjoy our movie showing you the children in Room 17.

KIWISPORT

We have been having so much fun in Kiwisport.  Coach Shanice has been teaching us ways to balance.  Here’s some of us walking while balancing small beanbags on our head.  Some of us are a lot better at it than others, but we all tried really hard.

Maths is Fun.

We had fun at Maths.  Miss Hockly told us all to choose two things from around the room (a pencil, hat, blocks, book etc).  Once we had them all we needed to group them.  Miss Hockly asked how we could do that, and Ema said we should group them by the same colour.  So we did -  red, blue, brown, green, colourful and yellow.

Then we graphed how many objects we had of each colour.

Next Miss Hockly asked if there was another way we could group the items.  We couldn’t think of another way, so Miss Hockly suggested we group them in things that are the same, so we looked to see what could go together.  We decided to put the animals together, the blocks, books, and then anything that didn’t belong to another group.  Here’s our groups.

We graphed these results too and then compared our graphs.
