Our Classroom


We have started an awesome week.  We have been very busy constructing name art.  Bombing bio poems bomb our class, please ask us about them.  We have been practicing athletics  all week long and feel we have improved. In room 9 we  have new  chairs and tables in our learning space.  Please come in and check it out!

Our first week back!

We all enjoyed our holidays but it's great to be back!  We are looking forward to all the challenges this year. We are especially looking forward to camp this term.  Its only week one and we have already learnt about the importance of the Treaty of Waitangi and still have some questions we need to find the answers for.  We have also started learning about graphs and which is the most appropriate to use for different situations.

We are excited to have Mrs Webster, Mrs Mac and Miss Carter as part of TEAM 9.

Welcome to Room 9 for 2013

Kia ora,
Mrs Mac, Miss Carter and I are thrilled to have such a switched on group of learners in our class!  We are excited by the writing and maths skills we have already seen and we look forward to working more in depth with students to realize their full potential.

This year we are focusing on developing self-managing, independent learners and this has started with our classroom structure.  You will notice that we have a range of different furniture and students have been enjoying having the autonomy to choose where they work.

We are also focused on "Team" - Ko au, ko taua, ko tatou (It is me, it is you, it is all of us).  We are focusing on working co-operatively with all class mates, sharing learning equipment and supporting each other to achieve.
