Building the Tallest Tower

For today's STEM Challenge we worked in groups to build the tallest tower.

We were given dried spaghetti sticks and marshmallows. 

We learnt lots of valuable lessons along the way.

*-To listen to all members of our group.

*-To take a risk and try new ideas.

*-The base of a structure is the most important part.

*-Spaghetti is fragile, marshmallows get really sticky when handled alot and time flies when you're having fun!

Measurement with Mrs Madden

Today we were very lucky to spend time with Mrs Madden in Room 23. Our learning was all to do with measurement. We measured our height, foot length, left wrist circumference, left thumb circumference and how long we could balance on our left leg for. Lots of children said they would like to continue measuring at home and bring it in for news. 

Way to go Room 21!

Today we met our Year 6 buddies. Throughout the year we will be sharing our learning with each other.

E Rere Taku Poi

Paper Plane Challenge

Our STEM Challenge for today was to turn a piece of paper into a paper plane. We then took them outside to see whose paper plane flew the furthest. Elliot was the winner!

OSMO Kits

We have loved using the OSMO kits in our Tinker Time sessions. When we use the Omso kits we get to explore, learn, create and interact with digital games in a whole new way!

Welcome Ralph

On Tuesday we were very lucky to meet Cooper's family dog Ralph. He sure did get lots of cuddles from us all.

Well done Arya

Well done to Arya who received the Principal's Award for Mana in our whole school assembly last week. 

Keep up the hard work!
