Powhiri

Yesterday we had a Powhiri for Gabriella, who is a new girl starting in Room 3. It was great fun and we enjoyed welcoming her into our team. We had biscuits and Juice and got to play with her old friends before they left.

Dress Up

Today we all dressed up in different costumes for Easter. We had an amazing time, as you can see in the Dress Up slideshow, and we can't wait to do it again after the holidays. We had lots of different plays going on at the one time. We behaved really well and were responsible students.

Solo Taxonomy

We have been learning lots about Solo Taxonomy in Room 2. The slideshow above shows some of our maps. We discussed what school would be like without teachers and we also discussed how teachers keep us safe. You can ask us at home what a pre structural answer is (can't answer/needs help), what a uni structural answer is (I can give 1 relevant point/answer) and what a multi structural answer is (I can give more than 1 relevant answer). In Room 2 we have all tried giving multi structural answers and we have been doing really well.
