So busy ......

Sorry.... a little slack on the blogging at the moment.  So much is happening its hard to find time.  For me (Miss Olliff) anyway, Room 1 learners have still been updating their's so check them out & leave a comment.

Camps
Last week our Y6s enjoyed a great 4 days camping at Okains Bay and next week Year 5's are heading to Ngati Moki Marae.  So much learning goes on at these camps it is amazing!

New Teacher
I am lucky enough to be joined by Miss Golder from the University of Canterbury for 5 weeks this term.  Miss Golder is in charge at the moment and is already an absolutely brilliant teacher.  She is helping learners understand time, energy, information reports and some fun new PE.

Who's been published?
Wow we have been busy.  Emily, Madisyn and Olivia were published in this weeks school newsletter - check it out here.  Sophie F and Leo have written for the local paper which should be published shortly.  Many of our Blue & Green Literacy group learners have written exciting book reports that will be published to the library website and on the walls in the library.  Absolutely Brilliant Writing team!  I am very proud!

Pheww - what a exciting and busy last 3 weeks. Please remind me to post more often!

We are blogging

What is a blog? What is a blogger?  We are all bloggers in Room 1 and a blog is a website that we can share our throughts and ideas with others.  We can also comments on other peoples ideas and communicate with people all over the world.

This week we all created our own blogs and made our first post.  You can visit these by clicking on the right hand side of our class blog (the one your reading now).  >>>>>>>>>>look over there!  We would love some feedback and comments on our posts.  You can even find tips for quality commenting at the top of this blog.

Keep an eye out as we update our blogs regularly.  Maybe you have some ideas that we could post about?
