Tuakana/Teina today in Kahikatea

Today we had the lovely little people from Room 3 join us.  It was our job to teach them some computer skills and make a poster.  We weren't supposed to touch the keyboard too much, but instead be a good teacher and show them how to learn new skills.

Our poster had to have:
* a background colour
* a border
* our names in different fonts and colours
* a picture of our favourite animals and a speech bubble with some facts about our animals.

Here are some pictures of how awesomely we were working and teaching:

Descriptive Writing

Last week the awesome writers of Kahikatea were shown a 360degree photo of a beach.  Their job was to write a description of what they could see, hear, smell, feel and taste.

The 360 degree photo worked really well as we could manipulate the video to look up, down and behind us.

Here are photos of the published work.  Whaea Danielle was super impressed, and we hope you will be as well!

Writing Week 7

Here is the image we are going to use for our writing in Week 7.  You will need to click on the 4 headed arrow to open the webpage, and then you can navigate around it.

We will be learning all about describing a moment in time.

Kahikatea Assembly

We had our first school assembly for the year on Friday.  The senior students in Room 1 take the assemblies.  First up to host was Rongo, Sandy and Kainah.  They had to plan the assembly, make a presentation and choose a song to sing.

They did an amazing job and everyone agreed that it was a much more exciting assembly than normal.

Whaea Michaelene announced the star house captains.

Liam, Jacob, Rongo, Kyle, Theo and Cam (absent from photo) were announced.  They were told to make sure they step up and show awesome leadership!!

Liam and Rongo had first honours as winning house captains of Piwakawaka!
