Award from the Principal!

Congratulations girls for sharing your work with Mrs Stewart. They worked very well together and the Principal's Award looks great on your board game!

Laminating Our RICE Games

Yesterday Mr Gordon helped groups laminate the RICE board game and cards. We found it a fun and interesting process and the laminated work was warm when it came out of the machine. It also makes the design stand out and will protect the game!

Christchurch Earthquake Podcast

Listen to our podcast about the earthquake in Christchurch yesterday.

Testing out our RICE Games

Alicia enjoyed being able to play the game and test it for any problems after it was made. Rosa noted that on one part of their board game a player could become trapped if they kept picking up RICE cards that moved them ahead or back 3 places. The group will have to problem solve a solution to that one!

Testing out our RICE Games

This afternoon some groups were able to test out their newly completed RICE board game and make note of things that need to be changed. After giving his game a trial run Leo stated that he discovered the instructions for his group's RICE game were not clear enough and they would have to change them a little.
