Some learning in Rm 4 last week

30.3.26

Last week we had Mr T teaching us about weather and climate change. We got to draw the cutest cartoon person jumping in a puddle. We played a game called ‘gold rush’. You run up and down the field and taggers try and tag you. If they tag you, you become a tagger too. I lost two rounds of the game but it was still fun.

The Sport Tasman guy ‘Daniel’ came in to teach us about Rugby passing and throwing. Like throwing it high in the sky and running under it to catch it.

The School Tryathalon

 Last week  we had a tryathlon. It was very fun, everyone dressed up and enjoyed themselves. Green house won the trophy. We also had swimming sports. River, Ella ,Tara and Me went. It was very fun. We came second in the relay. Lots of people made it into the finals.

Water Fun House Challenge

 Last week on Friday we had a water fun challenge. Each house teacher would make up a fun challenge that would have to include water.

I think that Mrs Roberts had the best challenge where you had to find dice, weights, cubes and mini balls in the pool.

The whole point was that you had to get the most points possible and then the teachers would add all your points together. The house with the most points would win. Green ended up winning, then Yellow the Red and last, but not least Blue.

Things happening in Rm 4

 

Last week we made name tags from paper, kind of like origami, which was really fun.  

This week I am looking forward to the tour with Ed Stevens. It was exciting creating the title page for my Topic Book. I drew a potion table, I used lots of colours. We also did a math sheet which had tons of different math problems on it.

First Day at School

 Yesterday was the first day of school and it was fun waking up early and meeting the old Room 3 people that are now Room 4 people. It was fun getting ready for the school year, I like doing the title pages. I had to drive to school, because it was pouring down with rain, but today the sun is shining and I think it is going to be another good day.

Whale & Dolphin Show

 Blog Update

Last week we had a whale and dolphin show. We got to learn about lots of different dolphins and whales. 

My favourite was the Mickey Mouse dolphin which is the rare New Zealand Hectors Dolphin unique for its rounded dorsal fin.

Whales have really loud calls, they can call from Motueka to Christchurch. They use their loud calls to attract mates.
