Christmas Homework Task

For the last two weeks of the term, Room 7 spent time at home on a Christmas themed Homework task. We needed to design and make 1 of 4 things. The most creative of each challenge received spot prizes. The 4 challenges are below including awesome photos so that you can see what Room 7 created.

1)  Design a Santa Super Sleigh that will help Santa deliver all the presents faster.

2)Design a trap to capture Santa.

3)Design a chimney that will help Santa get in and out of the house quickly.

4)Design the ultimate present ever.

 

 

Our new classroom!!

Back and forth, back and forth we go. Carrying desk tote trays to another room is exhausting. The desks were heavy, filled with loads of stuff. We're moving to Room 3 because Mrs Dodd is in Room 3 next year. We are getting ready for next year and we helped Mrs Dodd carry all the tote trays to the new room. It took a long time, but we finished!

Here are some words to describe how we feel about our new room;

• We still have an interactive whiteboard.
• We have Room 2 (empty space) next door to us.
• It's a newer room. It was built last year in 2011.
• We still have desks.
• There are extra computers.
• We have a microwave next to our room.

Twelve Days of Christmas!

Here are some fantastic pieces of writing that we put together based on the Christmas song 'Twelve Days of Christmas'. We used our virtue of creativity to write our own versions of the song. Please enjoy!

Christmas Wish Tree!!

We had a lot of fun making a christmas wish tree! We wrote our wishes onto our hand cut outs which then became part of our christmas wish tree. Below are photos of the christmas wish tree.



Student Led Conferences!

Tonight we held our student led conferences. It was a fantastic way for us to share our learning with our siblings, parents and grandparents. We showed them our goals in our learning books. After this we showed all our work around the classroom. At the end of our conferences we said thank you to our guests and went home with big smiles on our faces!

Here are some photos of us practising saying our learning goals earlier in the day.
