Today we have been researching and reviewing some of the Find-out-athon questions. In particular we were using the atlas to help us find out where places in New Zealand are located. We need to be ready for the test this Wednesday!

After all our hard work making the flags we felt very proud seeing them being used for the Multicultural Parade! Well Done Room 13!
Multicultural Classroom
It was wonderful to see the students arrive to class in their cultural clothing! It allows us to see what makes us unique and New Zealand so special!

Maths Games
As part of our writing and maths programme we have been creating multiplication maths games. It has been and interesting process designing the game, creating instructions and reviewing the game with our family and classmates. The final stage is to get it laminated for all to use and borrow for homework revision of basic facts.
Maths Week!
Last week we enjoyed the online Maths Week Challenge. We we surprised to see that some of the games were still up and running!

Flag Making
We have been gearing up for Multicultural Week by creating flags representing the various cultures at our school. Once we decided on the flags we needed we had to research the flag, draw it up and then paint it. Along the way we discovered and shared the interesting symbols and colours of the various flags.
Its a Small World
As part of our Earth Forces unit we create small models of the earth applying the various layers using modelling clay. When we were finished we cut the models in half which gave us opportunity to view the cross section of the earth! It is a small world and an interesting one!
