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!

CREATIVITY in MATH

Creativity is something that can be used in all areas of learning, especially in maths. This week we looked at creating Pixel versions of ourselves and also different superheroes. When focusing on symmetry and reflections we had the task to draw the reflection of an image.  



Below is the mirror drawing made by Indi, how awesome did she do!

 Measurement can be used in the kitchen, this week we made playdough and created different creatures. Check out some of them below.

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?

In Te Kahu we looked at articles and newspapers from around the world. 
Students were then given the task to create their own newspaper front page article and publish it to their blogs. Check out some of Te Kahu students amazing work!
