End of term - Maths Breakout

Today Room 5 & 6 had great fun trialing out Mrs G's Breakout kits.  They were super excited because they had seen and heard about the big kids doing 'Breakouts', so today was their chance to give it a go!

This breakout was focused on our current and recent Maths learning.  The video link below shows the kids working together, and how this empowered them to use the skills they have learnt in class to solve problems.

Well done Room 5 & 6

On Monday we visited Mrs Graham's blog at Tautoro School http://mrsgrahamr2.blogspot.co.nz/
We learnt the song Ra Whanau from their blog. It helped that the lyrics were there too.
Today was Kaira's birthday. Her mum made a marvellous birthday cake for us to share. We sang our new song to Kaira. Whaea Taka played the guitar and taught us a new way to cheer at the end.
