As we approach the end of our online learning from home journey I thought it would be nice to celebrate 4 stand out students from the past week. 

 Well done! I am very proud of the home learning you have been producing!

SPEECH PREP

We are beginning to unpack speeches and today we checked out three awesome young speakers and analysed their speeches. Check out what we thought of them below! 

Celebration Station!

Last week we held our first online school assembly, during this assembly we got to reconnect as a whanau and share some awesome celebrations as a school. 

Here are Te Kahu's great learners who received certificates at last weeks assembly. 

Arrrrrg you ready for a treasure hunt?

When looking into direction we focused on using a compass and giving and following instructions. Students were given the challenge to make a treasure map by giving directions to someone in their whanau. Check out some of our maps below, where would you end up if you followed this map in your home?

WEEK 5 MAHI

PROCEDURAL WRITING

For our first week of home learning Te Kahu looked at procedural text. Their task was to choose a topic they wanted to teach to someone else and create a video and a piece of writing that would help do this. In their writing they had to make sure they used the correct chronological sequence, that they used detail and that their instructions were specific. 
Here is a link to Te Kahu's HOW TO Videos, Check it out! 

HOME LEARNING

Te Kahu is off to an awesome start with our new way of teaching and learning. Remember that all mahi is on our class site as well as the link to our class hangouts. I am loving seeing all of your faces everyday. 

Here is our weekly timetable for scheduled classes. Don't forget that there is lots of other awesome work and links available on our class site. 

Every day students will be filling out a timetable of their day and add in what they have worked on for class, completed at home and any other activities they have participated in. Keep up the great learning Te Kahu :)
