Thank You Lynfield College

Last week we were fortunate enough to have some Year 9's from Lynfield College visit us. We got to spend the afternoon on the field with them learning new games that they had created. We had HEAPS of fun! When we got back to class we wrote them some thank you messages to show them how much we appreciated them coming to our school.

 DISCLAIMER:
Eat Your Word’s
Eat Your Word’s was exciting for the second time so i am writing what i reviewed.
in eat your words it was a great time to learn about fruit Sections
the funniest thing is when we learned about asparagus,we learned that it is in the allium Section
because it smells like onion when you pee,it might not work for 50% of people.
             The bests activities were food tasting we had to taste some fruit and think what it and write it on a sheet

who ever knew the fruit they were tasting would tick the food they thought was right.At the end of the activities
we got a poster/food recipe/facts about fruit or vegetable sections.

Food for Thought - Term 3

Today we had Food for Thought. In the beginning Adele asked us for our favourite sport and we all done the same thing. She taught us what not to eat and what to eat. We all agreed that we all need to eat healthy food, not food that makes us fat. 

Then we all had a cereal box and we all needed to look at the 100 grams per column. The oats were the healthiest option and the weetbix came second. the oats had 5/5, weetbix had 4/5. they were close.  

It was nearly the end so Adele showed us some drinks and then we had to guess how many teaspoons of sugar was in them. There were some fizzy drinks and two healthy drinks. the two healthy drinks were water and milk. There was one fizzy drink that Adele had not heard of - it was stars. 

We all were impressed by what she has taught us.

Here's Yin Yue's presentation about what she learnt during our Food for Thought sessions:






Here's what Isabella learnt from Adele:

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

Now that we have GAFE accounts, some of us have been exploring how to use google slides to create presentations in order to share our learning.


Here's one by Jessica & Brianna:


Here's a presentation about recycling by Eften:

Joshua, Akeli & Antonio also created one about the 3 R's:

Keep Our World Beautiful!

Room 13 recognised 3 environmental weeks over the last few months. They were:

  • Keep New Zealand Beautiful Week
  • Conservation Week
  • Recycling Week
To demonstrate our learning, we have made some radio ads and presentations to share what we have learnt. This is just a sample of what we created.

Playdough Fractions

At the beginning of the term, we did lots of learning about fractions. Miss Malone taught us how to make playdough. We used fractions to make the recipe. Then we used our playdough to make different fractions. 









It was a pretty messy experience, but lots of fun!
