The Year So Far...

Room 6 Reflection for 2014 so far:

Something I was pleased with was how I shared my dyslexia because I had to make sure it was good. Jaidyn

I enjoyed Masterchef because me, Ben, Liam, Kelly and Rosemary made brunch. JACOB

Reading is my favourite because we read Wonder and it is very interesting. Also we have reading groups and reading is one of my favourite things. Taylor

I learnt lots about stars, it is a fun topic to learn on. Zach

Something I enjoyed doing is sport because they are all fun and challenging. This year I have learnt how to play rugby and canoe polo, I also made it to inter school swimming but it was cancelled because of bad weather. Matilda

The most thing I have enjoyed was going to Flax Rock. I learnt how to rock climb and to be safe while doing it. Kellyanne

Something I enjoy is writing Miami Heat stories because you can do lot of writing in it. Traylan

Matariki is very fun also because we got to go to the planetarium at Napier Boys High.   Julius

Something I enjoy is going around teachers that need help for them or their class. Because it is fun to help and show them how to do it. Cameron

I am proud that I am in room 6 because I have had lots of fun. KAYLA

I enjoy being a sports pal at lunchtimes because I can see people playing games at lunch and being happy. Mary

I was proud of myself when I touched the top of the rock climbing wall. Brooklyn

I enjoyed writing about my soccer games. “GO WESTERN RANGERS!” we yelled and ran onto the field” is my favourite scene from my first soccer game.  James  

I have liked learning about area and perimeter in maths because I like to build things and when you build things you have to know the area and perimeter. Area and perimeter have done me good because on the weekend I built a hut out of wood and nails and corrugated iron. I had to be careful with the area and perimeter and measurements.

I really enjoyed rippa rugby and working as a team. Ben

I enjoyed the Young Leader mud run at the army assault course because it was lots of fun. I found it sort of challenging crawling under the cargo net. Elijah

Having blogger is really fun because we can share what we have done in class in our own way. Kyra

The thing I most enjoyed was going to the planetarium

and learning about black holes and about space. Maddison

In assembly Miss Hill was announcing the Young Leaders and I got one! YAY! Tracey

Flax Rock was the bomb! Maia

I enjoyed doing blog posts on my hunting trips because its a lot of fun sharing it with the class. Liam

I enjoy sharing on my blog. Jared

My awesome teacher Mr M has taught me so much about laptops. Rosemary

   

My favourite of the year is the Fax Rock trip because that was my first time there. It was so hard and so cool I want to go there again and again.  Jack

Something I was pleased with was making it into the RIPPA because I have not made it into rippa before. George

I enjoyed maths because it is fun doing maths and I love learning. Briar

Something I was pleased with was going on the waka because it was my first time and it was with my class, so that made it more fun. Crystal

Something I found interesting was learning about black holes because I didn’t know that when you go into a black hole you stretch so long that you just pop.

Tōtara Hub Sports Pals Rule!

George gets whacked by Ezra!

On Friday, our Tōtara Hub Sports Pals (Mary, Cameron and Kory) took our whole hub in a three game rotation. They taught us the games and then we played them on Paki's Paddock. We were split into six mixed teams across our hub and we had so much fun together. Everyone was fully participating and contributing. It is great to see the Tōtara Hub culture growing strong!
