Mathletics

 Woohoo! Te Puawai were Top Class of the week for Mathletics this week! To achieve this we had to work hard to gain new gold bars by doing Mathletics activities as a class. We worked together showing our school value of Porihanga or Community and Partnerships. 



 

Blog Commenting

 In Te Puawai we are learning about what makes a thoughtful, helpful and positive Blog comment. By commenting on other peoples Blogs we aim to help others learn and improve their work , just like they help us when they comment on our Blogs. In our class we use the following sentence starters to help us write our comments.




Project Energise

 We are very fortunate to be part of the Sport Northland Project Energise program. Over recent years our Energiser has been Garth, but we now have a new Energiser named Morgana. Students across the school have enjoyed learning how to stay fit, healthy and active every second Monday with Morgana. She has taught our students how to stretch before and after games or physical activity and fun, new games that they can play. The students have thoroughly enjoyed having Morgana at school and look forward to learning more from her.

Measurement

Our math's strand for this term is Measurement. Today we got to 'tutu' with some of the measurement tools and measure the playground. We measured the height, width and length of different parts of the playground.
