RWC Puzzle

WALT find specific information
WALT put information into our own words
WALT increase our knowledge of the Rugby World Cup

We created this because the World Cup was on.
We created this by answering questions which we found the information for on our class site.  We put the answers onto puzzle pieces, coloured them in, cut them out and then glued them onto black paper to make a rugby ball shaped puzzle.

Finding the Area of a Shape

WALT find the area of a shape in square centimeters.

We explored shapes by covering them with square centimeter cubes and counting how many cubes it took to cover the shape.

We then drew shapes on grid paper and counted how many squares our shapes covered.

Fairy Tales in Te Reo Maori

WALT retell fairy tales in Te Reo Maori
WALT make a movie using iMovie

We created this to help celebrate Te Wiki o Te Reo Maori (Maori Language Week)
We created this by taking a video of the little puppets moving.  Then we took off any background noise and recorded our voices saying the Te Reo Maori for the fairy tale. We then added titles to show the English translation and who made the video.

Reflection: It was wonderful to have Tuatara come in and help us with Google Drawings.  It was hard to put the information into our own words.  Google drawings was sometimes frustrating!

Do you think our drawings are impressive?

Hauora

We are learning about Hauora and that we each have 4 'walls' which we need to look after so that our body and mind can be happy and healthy.

We created this to show how we look after ourselves.
