Week 2 Term 4

 

Our innovation theme was in full swing this week. 

Room 3 students particulary enjoyed the golden egg challenge this week. We kept coming up with creative ideas to get the egg down from the beanstalk. Some ideas included creating a soft landing place, rolling down from a height and wrapping up the egg before dropping it! Check out more on our student blogs. 

We are great at sharing our leanring and expertise with others. Our 2nd daily Meet is where we inspire others by sharing our leanring tasks. We also give and recieve feedback to each other and help each other out with technical or presentation difficulties. 

Creating Kahoots! has been another love of ours this week. We are leanring so much about making Kahoots! by giving it a go and playing each others quizzes and giving feedback. Practise will eventually make perfect!

So glad we are a helpful, creative and inspiring class! I really look forward to seeing what you and your whanau have been up to each day.

Keep up the great work Room 3 Whanau!

Week 1 Term 4

 Although we were sad to get the news that we would not be going into class this week; Room 3 have been doing amazing learning fromt he safety of their bubbles!

We have been meeting twice a day, completing our learning and sharing learning tasks. Our learning is shared with our friends and teachers, during our Google Meet sessions and on our blogs. 

Go to our Room 3 Student Blogs to have a go at some of our pick-a-path stories or read a chain story. Don't forget to leave a comment about our learning or a suggestion for what you would like to see as learn about next. 

I am so impressed by the effort that Room 3 students and their whanau are putting into learning. 

Kia kaha whanau,

SUPER Writing

 This week we have been writing with a 'SUPER' theme. Here are three examples of our work. We hope you enjoy reading these and then head over to our personal blogs to read some more!

If I had a superpower it would be to have speed so I can save people. And help them cross the road. And help the kids If they fell on the playground. Sometimes in the morning the poor people need food so I would use my speed power to go to the shops and then get the poor people some food.

My super power will be the superpower of absorbing someone's super power. I can absorb more than one power at the same time but that can drain my energy faster.

The only two powers I can’t absorb are breathing underwater and mind controlling but the rest I can absorb. I will use my powers for good and save people from danger.

A superhero is a good person who tries to stop the bad guys and helps people and sometimes hides in a secret lair or their identity is secret or they might be the opposite of that 

A villain is a bad person trying to be bad and they might try to be...

Destructive, deadly, and even might be killing and some might try to take over the world.

They are the same because they are both rare to find and they both might hide in a secret lair.

They are different because the superheroes are good.are evil.

Learning in Lockdown

 Kia Ora Whanau, 

Room 3 have been doing some amazing learning during our current lockdown. Although we would all much rather be learning at school, we are making the most of our time by learning at home. 

I, personally, am taking time to learn names and identify learning strengths. It has been great to receive emails from whanau, welcoming me to Papakura Central School, these emails have made me feel extremely welcome as I begin this next chapter. 

Our bubble buddies have been a rich resource of information. Thanks to all the adults and siblings in our bubbles who keep us going and offer us support from baking to building; practising maths facts to reading stories- this support is helping Room 3 learners continue to learn while at home. 

Kia kaha, whanau!
