Welcome to Room 2, a multi cultural class of talented thinkers!
Already this term, we have settled into classroom routines including completing homework every week.
Managing ourself is a key competency and we are learning how to be organised for school everyday and to be responsible for our own actions. We are also learning about quality work and how important it is to set ourselves personal goals and set the next goals and know how to achieve them.
For the first three weeks of this term we have been working on "All About Me" where we have gotten to know each other and we will continue to build positive relationships so we can work together (kotahitanga) and strive to be the best we can be. Our waka on the classroom wall symbolises that we are all on the learning journey together, students, whanau, teachers and the wider school community.
We have been busy swimming and we have not missed a day yet due to the weather. Our swimming assessment can be viewed on our classroom wall. It is an education requirement in New Zealand that all school children learn how to swim so this is not an optional activity. If you cannot swim due to medical reasons please provide a note.
Assessment takes place this term to make sure the students are grouped according to their learning needs in maths, reading and writing.
We have started a daily fitness programme and we will be learning a musical instrument and another language besides Te Reo Maori. So, as you can see, we are a very busy class.
Enjoy viewing this site and we look forward to sharing our work with you.
