Mega Maths Month


Well done Room 7! You are champs!! Our class average went from 60% through to a staggering 83% that is a big jump, but guess what? Just because Mega Maths Month is over, it isn't in Room 7, we are going to keep on going! Especially for those Room 7 kids who are still hovering around the 50-60% mark we need to be making a little more effort.

AND...

What about our fitness levels?? Who has done some fitness activities this weekend? I have been to the gym once and did a great session on the treadmill and the cross trainer, how about you?

AND.....

Thomas and I went to the Nuggets in the weekend and guess who we saw? Mia, Mol and Jenna! AND they all came and said HI! that's how we roll in Room 7!

See you tomorrow!

What do you think of when you see this?

I found this photo, your mission is to tell me, is it real? Where is it? How do you get there? How does it make you feel and why?
Can't wait to hear from you!

Week four

Hello my fabulous team!

Well my goodness, I cannot believe I forgot to give you homework ! eek, what was I thinking! I think because I was out of routine with Matua visiting this afternoon! (Thanks Mol & Nesha for reminding me!)

Never mind, here is your homework for week 4
  • Learn your spelling words (as usual) including using them in sentences
  • Science fair - where are you up to? you should by now be able to tick off AIM/HYPOTHESIS/METHOD AND have interview questions for your expert. The reason you need some questions for your expert is to help you answer your questions, provide you some background research for your introduction.
  • You should also be thinking about getting your testing or inventing done. You should repeat your testing at least 3 times to ensure your results are reliable. Remember that you are welcome to do your testing at school, just make sure you organise a time with me beforehand!
Thanks

Let me know what you took from their visit today, post a comment and share with our blogging community.
