Panmure Library Visit - Stig

On Friday, we (Room 5, LS1 and LS2) went to the library to listen to Stig Wymess. Stig is a book voice artist who narrates Andy Griffiths books. Stig is incredibly funny. He talked to us about Borrow Box, a digital way to borrow book audios, including Stig's audios. He hooked us in with his humor and all of his actions. Stig also told us how reading a book wanted him to be an actor. When he entered, he Latham and Afu played a game 'Chubby Bubbie' (Chubby Bunny). We had so much fun. He made us laugh so much. Then everyone had a challenge, the people who went up had to say nothing but 'sussage,' without laughing too. After so many people, we finally had a winner, Zahn. The people who went up got prizes like an audio book.

Thinkboard - Decimals

 Here is my thinkboard to a maths problem. We had to make a diagram, a word problem, similar questions that answers to 7.8 and our thinking. I really enjoyed using the thinkboard, it was very fun. Our focus was on adding decimals this week. I really hope we do many more thinkboards in the future. 

Cross Country

Yesterday, a couple of people went to the inter school for cross country. We went to Bailey Road school were we had to compete other schools. It was raining a lot, but we dealt with it. We saw many different schools with lots of skills. There were schools like Point England school and Stone fields. We had our colored bands, this will tell us what age/year group we're from. We had our race a couple of hours later, we were pacing ourselves and kept running although the course was very bumpy. The course was very long and muddy but we all made it out. I loved how everyone cheered us on while running. I think I need to improve on my endurance and stop less. 

Duffy Assembly

 

 Today, we had our Duffy Assembly with our two special guests, Henry Tuipe'a and a sponsor from Main freight. They talked to us about why books are important in our daily lives. Henry told us about his journey. We then received our Duffy books. Thanks to Main freight for our sponsor with the books. And remember, "it's cool to read."  

Teaching Ms Naika Farsi

Today I taught Ms Naika how to talk in Farsi. It was difficult but she learned most of them. This was for my confidence badge: Teach your teacher a new skill.
