Narratives and stories

Over the last term with Mrs Mcleod we have been writing narratives and myths and its been fun creating our stories because it gives people the opportunity to let their imagination run wild. I also enjoy it because it is better than just being given a maths sheet and being told when to do it and how to do it.

Red-cricket team

Over the last few weeks we have been playing cricket against other schools. We have played Harewood, Halswell, Hoon Hay and Thorrington and we have won all our games so far but we have one more game and that is against Thorrington.

Hi from Room 4

Hi Room 6
We have added Room 6 to our followers list as well and we look forward to reading about your learning. We hope you will visit our blog and comment on our learning.

Hi from Mrs Patten and Room 4

Hi Room 9
I have added you to our followers list so that we can follow your learning.
I have really enjoyed reading your blog posts. You have really taken this new learning tool on well and I find it very interesting to read what you are learning about at school.
Well done Josh and Emma you are being great tutors. Your next step in learning is for each of you to teach these skills to one other person in the class, then they can do the same and before long all the class will be experts. This means that Josh and Emma can move on and learn more skills to teach the rest of the class. I wonder what will be next? Perhaps photos on your posts?
Well done team.
I hope you will visit Room 4's blog and write a comment on what our students are learning about. I know they would love to hear from you.
