Te Reo Maori and Art Collaboration

Image
As part of our Te Reo Maori this term, we will be looking at the traditional myths and legends from the Maori culture. We began with 'The Fish of Maui'. We thought it would be a great idea to work collaboratively to create a 'shared book' of this myth. These photos show us working together on the sketching of a scene from the story. When this is complete, we will vivid our sketches and use dye to add colour. We will then publish our section of the myth and display in the classroom. I can't wait to see the final product!

Maths - Probability Spinners

Image
In Maths, we have been looking at probability. Today, in pairs, we played a really fun spinner game. We made spinners and divided one in half and labelled it 1 & 2, and divided the second one into thirds and labelled it 1, 2, 3. We had to make a prediction about what we think would happen. During the game we kept track of the score using a tally chart. We spun the spinners and added the total of the two numbers together. If the total was an even number we recorded it in the tally chart and Player A got a point. If the total was an odd number we recorded it in the tally chart and Player B got a point. The first person to get 20 points was the winner. At the end of the game we discussed what happened in our game, how did the results compare to our prediction, did we think the game was fair or not. It was a fun activity and a great way to start the day :)

We will have a lot of fun investigating where we come from and what it means to belong to a diverse range of cultures. In Reading, we will initially be focusing on a range of persuasive texts - identifying features and content that makes a piece of writing persuasive. We will also look at drawing our own conclusions and reflecting on what impact we have on a variety of issues and what action we could take to make our world a better place to live in. In Writing, we will continue the persuasive theme. We will look at what makes an effective persuasive argument and what we relevant information we need to include to persuade our reader to our way o...
