After a long absence we are back!

Last week in Brain Time Mr Davidson gave us a challenge to get the bee bot from the "Z" to the "F." Here is a video of Corrina's Bee Bot completing the task. Well done Corrina!

Display Cup

After telling us that he would give out the cup for the best display weeks ago, Mr Davidson finally gave it out for the first time. This week it goes to Corrina for filling up the whole space and changing things throughout the term. What a wonderful way to show us how you've been learning!

This week we had a challenge from Barry the Brainy Bee (http://barrybrainybee.blogspot.co.nz/). He asked us to make a blog post showing our learning with he Habit of Mind Listening.  This is what we made:

Samoan Language Week Challenge #1

This week is Samoan Language week. Every day we have been given a challenge. Today's challenge was to make a video of our class saying Talofa Lava (Hello).  See what we did:

See the videos that the Pasifika club has made here.

Bridges of Sand

Next time we're going to do it better by making the hills the same size (Jenysis). That is making it right. We will try this next week.

Happy Day

Today was Happy Day. We went to our morning tea shed and drew some happy day pictures of us. Have a look at what we did and watch the video!

Koru Patterns

Today we made Koru patterns. They look like waves or plants. Some are skinny and some are thin. First we used a pen to draw the pattern. We looked at the paper so we could see what to do. There was already three different Koru patterns on the page. Then we coloured it in neatly, with no white spots and we made sure it was dark. Have a look at some of the patterns we did:

Patterns!

Today, Mr Davidson asked us to make a pattern using anything we could find in the classroom.  We used Lego, puzzles, lids, rocks and shells, numicon shapes and Bee Bots. Can you make a pattern yourself?

Have a look at the patterns we made. Can you figure out what the pattern is?

Jackson is our Friend

During Discovery today, we got to hold Jackson, our class pet. We listened to Mr Davidson. We had to hold him on the tail near his bum and be very careful. He was not too scared of us. See the pictures of us holding him:
