Hi All,

If you didn't get time to come and see some of the awesome work Room 8 is doing in class. Here are a few pics that were taken of our display. Our displays were based on our topic this term- "Writer's at work". Students had an author that they had to research and make comparisons between two different texts written by that author.

TE WIKI O TE REO MAORI

A nice way to end Te wiki o Te Reo Maori with a steamed cooked hangi prepared by the students of Room 8.

Room 8 and 9 with the police

On Friday my class, room 8 and I went over to room 9 to talk to the police about stealing. The first thing we did was making a list about the bad things that people could do to get arrested, fined or even getting sent to court and prison. After we did that the police officers explained to us what the word ‘law’ meant. Next, we did an activity and had to match the paragraphs to the correct sign. The paragraph wasn’t hard it was easy for some students but the other students thought it was hard. When it was all done we asked some final questions, my question was “if a child killed somebody do they go to a kid jail or get a HUGE punishment?” Everyone was laughing but I was quite serious. When it was over the officers went to their next destination room 21. After that we went back to our classes and carried on with our learning.
