Art Deco Dress Up

Friday was our Art Deco Dress Up Day. Don't we look fabulous in our vintage clothing.



Principals Award

Congratulations on your Principals Award Holly. You look fantastic in your Art Deco clothes :)


Line Segment Measuring

A line segment is part of a line between two specific points. It can be straight or curved. We had to draw line segments that were 76cm long. They had to be curved or they would not fit on the paper! We had string to help us. When we cut the string at 76cm we could curl it up on the paper and draw along it.

The problem was making the string 76cm. Mrs Duligall gave us pieces of broken rulers. Some were only from the 0 to the 6cm long. Others went from 8cm up to 30cm. How could we measure 76cm using only the parts of rulers?

It was a challenge!


Dance Mat Typing

When we are writing on our Chromebooks it is much faster if we know where all the letters and keys are. To help us learn this we have been using Dance Mat Typing. It can be quite noisy with us all using Dance Mat Typing at one as it tells us to "Type on me!" if we press the wrong key. So we have all been using headphones to just listen to our own. Here are some photos of us learning to type.





All About Us

This week we have been learning all about each other. Our challenge for our homework was to talk to our families and decide on 5 words that really describe us. We then had to make a word cloud to display these words. Take a look at these fabulous word clouds.

ClassDojo

Today we started using ClassDojo in Room 15. Every one has their own monster avatar and Mrs Duligall is able to award points for good behaviour in class such as following the class rules, being on the mat in time, being on task and active listening. If we are not following the rules, being disrespectful, being off task or talking out of turn we lose a point.


Today we all got lots of points but Holly and Te Atawhai got the most points and each received Values Awards. Well done girls.

Over all Room 15 were showing 95% positive behaviour today. Well done everyone - keep it up :)

New Beginnings

Welcome to a new year, a new room, a new year group and new devices!

Its going to be such an exciting year because everyone in Room 15 this year has their own laptop! We have already learnt how to log on and change some of the settings, personalising our pages. We have also learnt how to bookmark website and have bookmarked our class blog.

Can't wait until next week when we can use our devices in our reading, writing and maths work.
