room 10's blog

Well done room 10, a great first week! This week we have cross country running on Wednesday so remember your gear. A message for all the parents out there. We have been working hard on different strategies for solving addition questions in our heads. Try getting kids to add the digits on the number plates of other cars you see while driving around. Talk about the different ways you use! See you at the conferences in week three!

Hi room 10 and welcome to the new term. It was a great first term and I am really looking forward to seeing you all on Monday. I am sure you will all have some cool stories from the holidays. I will have a few to share also. Catch you soon. If you comment on this post talk about your holiday highlight!

On Monday we had a wonderful time at Hataitai Park doing some really cool orienteering. We used scaled maps, proper controls and were all timed. We even avoided the rain; it was a bit on the windy side! Today we celebrated the school camp by viewing some images and movies.

Well, we are back in school after camp. Camp was

so fun. We did lots of stuff  like going on the

flying fox, waterslide, in the pool and a lot more.

My favourite thing was eel feeding during the

trip to Nga Manu. Check out a  few pics.

Well, this week is our big camp preparation week

and we have been working hard getting ready for

the big event. We have also been busy with our

other projects including our measurement unit.

Check out the progress on one of our skeletons. 

There is also a picture of a vertebrae we have been

looking at. Looking forward to camp next week.
