Deciding what question we want to answer!

Part of Action Learning is deciding what question we want to answer.  Here are our ideas. Please help us decide what question to answer!

CONGRATULATIONS TO HAZZIE!

Well done Hazzie for winning your trophy for Horsemanship. What a huge achievement!  We asked Hazzie awesome questions about her trophy and horse.  We had a really good talk and learnt a lot!

LOCK DOWN DRILL

Today we had a lock down drill where we practice what to do in an emergency.  We closed the windows and curtains,  locked our doors and quickly went undr the tables to be safe.
We did a great job and our teachers were very impressed!

Action Learning!

We are learning how to brainstorm and map our ideas under key words.  We brainstormed what we know about farm animals and got into groups to catergorise what we know.
Our key words are:
★Farm animals
★People on farms
★Things on farms
★ Other animals

Check out our mapping photos!

Our Farmer Parade!

On Friday, we dressed up as Farmers to take part in the Parade at School. The Parade helped us learn about New Zealand History. It started with some children dressed as the first Maori settlers and ended with well known New Zealanders.
Here are Room 18 as Ye Old Farmers!

Some silly farmers...

 Serious Farmers...
