Transformation Style


We have investigating Geometry over the next couple of weeks- I found this clip that will hopefully be catchy enough to make the vocabulary terms and their meanings, that we will be using in class, easier to recall!

Te Taima- He aha te wa?
















We've learnt the numbers in Te Reo Maori...now we are applying our knowledge to telling the time. Students created a resource that could be used to teach others the skill. Thanks Brooke.M and Bonnie for sharing! Check out individual blogs for more!

Financial Literacy


Thanks Sophie and Libby for allowing me to share your research! Perhaps the pet/ dog purchasing step was one too far?

It was very interesting for students in Room 12 to search for a career, learn about salary rates and then apply this information to the cost of living- I am afraid that many decided a discussion with Mum and Dad about long-term living arrangements at home was in order!
