inquiry questions - lets just think about this

Today we began thinking deeply about exploring our wonderings from our recent thinking. We have been watching clips on Cacao bean plantations and child trafficking on the Ivory Coast of Africa. The students are beginning to explore in pairs their own questions. Yes, we've been thinking HARD about what is going on in the world.

Courtney returns from her travels

Today we welcome Courtney back from her month long travels in Europe! She is full of stories and we are envious of her trip! Welcome back Courtney, we've missed you!

A very impressive advertising trailer made to show just how awesome our $100 challenge is. Today, the first day of our official sales saw us make over $300 for our service project. I am VERY proud of the students efforts, enthusiasm and  energy displayed during this project! More for sale tomorrow.

zookeeper interview

This term the students have been looking at what they need to do to achieve their chosen careers. They have been exploring the website Careers NZ to see what they need to study and in line with our inquiry topic this term, the earning potential of that career. This is Jack's interview.

Sharing our quick writes.

Today we welcomed Ms Parker and Room 11 to our learning space. 

For the next week we are going to be working on our quick writes with the objective of sharing them together next Thursday. There was a mixture of excited chatter and nervous laughter as the two classes got to n ow each other. Together they debated pictures to write about and used very persuasive language to convince the rest of the group to choose their age to spend time writing about.  Thanks for the visit  Rm 11, see you next week!
