Comic Life

Room 4 did a comic life each, we had too explain what we had to do, I chose how to use twink.

We had to take photos of what we were talking about and write about them. 

 

KI-O-RAHI

Yesterday on the 11th of July 2013, Room 4 went to Ngatimoti School for a social Ki-O-Rahi tournament.

First of all Room 4 went on the bus to Ngatimoti School. We had a fairly good ride. When we arrived we waited for the other schools to arrive so we played on the playground.

When the other schools arrived we gathered together and the organiser informed us of the timetable to the schools. There was 6 schools competing in the tournament. For the first game we lost, the second game we lost, then the third game we won. After that the schools got mixed up into different teams and sadly the team i was in lost that game.

I reckon it was pretty good in the end we may have lost, but we tried hard.

Art Attack

This Term Room Three and Four have been doing Art Attack with Miss Aldridge. The topic we were doing was called Massive. Massive is a big contest in Motueka, and it’s every two years. Every time it has a different subject that the play has to relate to, this year the subject is Bright. So we're going to do something with a bright future, it starts with a war then it goes into a funeral with dancing, so it has a happy ending.

Last day.

Last day.

This day is the day all the girls want to look pretty because it’s the last day of school.

It’s good because all the girls say to each other “You look so beautiful.” So that’s one thing I like about schools last day.

 This schools last day is really awesome because I’m performing gymnastics dance and I can basically do a walk over.

I cannot wait! I love my friends so much and I thank them for being there for me.

Cultures -Munashe .

Room 4 have been studying cultures around the world on birthdays, funerals,education and weddings we looked at Turkey, Mexico, Colombia and India.We were comparing the New Zealand  culture with some other countries around the world. Mr Matthews helped us with our cultures and understanding them.  We went to the Marae for our culture visit we were learning about the Maori culture and the stories.It was fun to see what they do and make for their tradition and culture.

Massive Practise

Massive is like a stage challenge, it is where we dance and sing to a theme. We enjoy practicing very much because it is active and interesting. We are currently working on an army theme where a man gets shot and rose again. The whole purpose of this theme is for a better future, a brighter future.

 We are doing an army dance (the boys) where Liam W is the leader. Liam Patu is the guy that gets shot and he does the fake death and is pretty good at it .Then we have the Poppy dancers that will start dancing in the middle of the story. There are also hippy dancers that join in with the army and then the poppy dancers join in too .We will be singing “we are all in this together” and do our dance moves .We are not done with the Massive theme yet we still have a lot of things to add to the story.

Massive is also where we compete against other schools. Since we are a small group that attended the massive competition we have to work extra hard to make sure our small group makes a big performance and shows the other school what we are made of .We thank everyone that made this possible “Miss Aldridge is helping us and teaching us a few moves and the rest comes from the dancers “.

This is the moment we will always remember, being with our friends, doing something fun together as a group for fun and adventure.

Chocolate Day!

On Wednesday 10th July 2013 Room 4 had a chocolate day to celebrate how well we have done in Geometry. We all brought something to share with the class there were things like cake, blocks of chocolate, brownie, and cookies. When we first got to school we all put all the food on the table and then we went to MoTEC. When we got back we put the movie ‘Despicable Me’ and ate most of the chocolate, it was lots of fun and there was still a little bit of chocolate left the next day.

Maths

In Term 2 Room 4 learnt geometry in maths where they learnt about shapes, position and angles.
At the end of the Term they did an astle test to test their knowledge.
After the test they had a chocolate day where they brought in anything that had chocolate in it and then they eat it while watching the movie despicable me.
In term three they will get to chose what topic in maths they have to do, a thing that no other school has ever done before.
