Cat Catastrophe

I.A.L.T. create an animated slide show telling a narrative story. It was great at school today as there were so many students absent so for a treat our teacher taught us how to create animated slide shows. I hope this happens a lot more.

Fruit Cross Sections

We created some cross section paintings of fruit using a new tool of cardboard to create the images. We scrapped, stamped, slid or twisted the cardboard pieces to give a different effect. We have been discussing healthy snack options after having Whaea Gina share information in our Energise programme.

Puppet Play demonstrating Inclusion

W.A.L.T. create a puppet show to demonstrate how to include everyone in our work and play.

Teah's Learning Map

I.A.L.T. create a Learning mind map to show who I learn from and who I help learn. I also learnt how to insert double ended arrows, images, photos and labelled boxes.

Support Worker Librarian -Shirley

Today is International Support Staff Day. We celebrated it by creating cards for all the support staff in our school who help us learn in so many different ways. Check out the cards that we have made for some of our supporters.

Teah's Chromebook

Chromebook Land

On a poor rainy Friday at 10:00 a.m I
received a chromebook. First we put in our
email address then the password. We all got
a photo with our chromebooks. We went
back to class and went to kiwi kids news. I
saw an 11 year old gymnast she was very
good I was amazed she did backflip and
hand spring on a balance beam,  she even
did a handstand on  the bar.  After we went
on Study ladder. I made my person and
played walk the plank,  it’s the same as
hangman but each time you get the letter
wrong he walks one step if he steps into
the water  you loose. My chromebook is
AWESOME.

After her speech this morning at the Waitangi Treaty Grounds, Jacinda Ardern made her way down to Paihia School to meet students.

Northland MP Willow Jean Prime led Ms Ardern and members of the Labour caucus onto the school.

Students welcomed the Prime Minister with a pōwhiri and a boisterous performance of Utaina Mai before heading onto the field for a picnic lunch.

Ms Ardern was flanked by students as they asked her questions about politics, her favourite colour and hobbies.

Our class was really luck as Jacinda Arden sat amounst us while she ate her lunch.

Thea and Maya were really lucky to be given a banana muffin by Jacinta. It tasted yummy and they ate it it with great delight, not wasting a single crumb. Thea also gave her a beautiful necklace that she had especially made for her but she wore it as a bracelet.

Jacinda also shared her Mars chocolate bar with Thea, Jade, Maya, Ayanda, Brisa and Fern. It was so scumptuous and sticky because it had melted in the sun. Jacinda had to cut it with a plastic fork.

Jade was given a healthy salad from Jacinda. It was crisp and crunchy with a variety of lettuce, baby tomatoes, avocado, cuccumber, capsicum and salad dressing. It was so great to have something cool on such a hot day.

Teah bought some kauri wood and created a very special kauri pen for Jacinda that her her name engraved on it. Jacinda signed the cardboard box that it was presented in and now Teah has a special keepsake of her own to remind her of the day that our Prime Minister visted us at school.
