Reading

My favourite thing in reading is learning all about different facts and learning a new sound each week.

Mathematics

My favourite part of maths was when we did fractions, we could use the CommBox screen to draw the fractions, we could also draw and cut the fractions.

My favourite part of SPARK is making the paper aeroplane, at the end we could throw the aeroplane! We get to do so many fun, different activities with new people.

Art

I loved when we made fireworks, using different materials, also making medals out of clay – rolling the clay was like making cookies. I loved painting the chimpanzees, we can make different colours and draw.

Mathematics

We have been learning about decimal points. They are a crucial part of maths. I like working out questions in maths. I like mixing the numbers around. Learning about money is important so when you go to the shops you don’t get scammed with the change you get. Percentages help you know how much discount you get when you buy things on sale from the shop.

English

I get to learn new things like idioms. Learning about idioms was a piece of cake! Personification was very interesting because we can extend our ideas.

Social Science

We got to eat different food and experience different cultures during our middle school feast. We researched about native New Zealand birds, its habitat and diet. Then we made it in Minecraft Edu. We can learn and have fun at the same time.

Design Time

I like design time because it is fun and we get to do different activities. My favourite one has been Spheros because you get to connect with friends and learn how to control little robots.

In Music, we explore new instruments, learn new songs as our creations come together in harmony. My friends and I playing the keyboard, drums, and electric guitar. It's magical!

Science lessons move like light the speed of light, studying new topics, Bunsen burners alight, experimenting as we investigate for the Science Fair.

We work in groups to devise our own scenes of Commedia, developing the different character types. Being able to speak clearly and confidently is a key skill I've developed

Hard Materials

I have loved learning to use the scroll saw, drills, belt sander to measure, cut, sand, glue and hammer our own ukulele instrument!
