Self Portraits - Part One

There was a few steps to be able to get to the final art piece.
First we placed a piece of paper over the top of an A4 head shot photo of ourselves, so that we could trace the outline of our head, faces and shoulders. We found it easier to lean on a window to be able to see the picture more clearly.
Next we went over the pencil with black sharpie.

Math Time.

Math time is always fun. I see many focussed learners.
Learning how to use the 100's board to help count in 2's, 5's and 10's.

Learning new math games with a buddy.

Working together.

Lots of different math games to choose from.

Geek Out

Geek Out is a time to explore technology to help us with our learning. We can increase our knowledge on how to use Chrome books more effectively, use the iPad to create books and movies. We can use the maker space in Room 10 in a creative way. We can work with our friends in other classes to learn how to juggle, play new games, share our ideas and to read.

Maker Space.

Choosing the best place to sit - sometimes it's the couch, sometimes the whiteboard table.

Learning how to juggle.

Playing cards.

First Day in Akomanga Waru


We had a day of getting to know each other and learning about the different areas of our school like the garden and Putikitiki. 
We are looking forward to learning together and working with the other classes in Kauri team.
