PINCH AND A PUNCH FOR THE FIRST OF THE MONTH

ASK ME ABOUT MY LEARNING

 Often your child will come home and when you ask them about what they have learnt at school, they might answer with "NOTHING" 

Here are some things you could ask them about from the last couple of weeks.

CURRENT EVENTS: What are we doing for Oral Language? What day are you on?

Statistics: What does this mean? What steps could you do to be good at gathering data? Can you show me how to make a graph? What types of graphs can you make? 

LOVE IS POEMS: 

We used our different senses to write about things that we love. Which one did you write? Did you enjoy this activity?

Yvann in Queenstown

WOW look at the clip and watch Yvann getting involved with a local busker in Queenstown. Brillant!

MISTAKES

 We have been discussing the different mistakes we can sometimes make and the learning that we gain from them. 

We wrote one mistake down on paper then had a snowball fight with them. The snowball that we picked up, we then read aloud to the class. It was very interesting listening and realising that we have all made similar mistakes...and Guess what...we are still all doing very well!

CONGRATULATIONS

 Congratulations to our new Year 6 leaders. We know that you will all do an awesome job.

OUR CULTURAL LEADERS: Kisa and Eunji

OUR CONWAY HOUSE CAPTAIN: Jeremiah

OUR SCHOOL COUNCIL LEADERS: Nicholas, Rosie and Ariana

Inspirational

We watched these today and discussed the amount of time Danny and Jacob would have been trying to do these stunts. What amazing skills! What did we think these guys would have to have?

WELCOME TO TERM 1 2022

 Welcome Back to Room 4 at Ilam School. 

We have had a great couple of days at school, getting to know each other. 

We have discussed our wonderings....these are interesting: 

WONDER WALL. Click on the link to see more clearly...

SWIMMING: 

We will be able to use the school pool each week, our time is on Monday 2-2:45pm but there will also be a couple of extra days added in, students will have these written in their diaries. 

PAPER FOLDING CHALLENGE:

Can we do it? Apparently not according to the words being said during the activity. The actions and thoughts... slamming desks, gritting of teeth, Huffing and puffing

HOW DO WE CHANGE THESE WORDS AND ACTIONS? 

We need to think about our mindsets!
