Putt for the $

Not only did Te Whare Ruru have a shared experience this morning of trying out their putting skills with a golf club, they used this experience in their recount writing. The aim of the challenge was to putt the ball so that it stopped on the cardboard disc. Should it do so, you would win the amount shown on the card. 
Great try everyone  - there were a number of very close putts that had us quite excited! A potential Harvest Festival activity for Friday evening.

Thanks St Joseph's School Waitara

This morning our class was very excited to receive a courier post package from Room 5 at St Josephs Waitara. We read through their poster and passed around their postcard metaphors. At lunchtime Rylee put together their postcard jigsaw. (see below)

#GET WRITING NZ

We have completed a project that connects with another school in NZ - St Joseph's Waitara in the Taranaki region. We collaboratively worked together on a poster that had questions about who we are as a class and a school. We wrote metaphors about ourselves on postcards. We put these together as a jigsaw puzzle and they made a big message "Talk with people who help you see the World differently"

Postcards as a jigsaw
A poster about who we are and our environment

Happy to have completed the project
