Teach the Teacher: Part Two and Three

We have some amazing and passionate students in room 6!

Thank you to all the students who shared their teach the teacher last week and this week. Peyton showed us how to create a lava lamp in a bottle, Nathan showed us how to make a vinegar volcano and Tait shared some awesome information about her passion, gymnastics.

I love watching the students take charge and teach the whole class because they all work so hard to prepare for their lesson. Well done Peyton, Nathan and Tait - you all rock!

Check out our photos and videos!

Who will be next? What will we learn next?

Cross Country

Wow! I knew I had some fantastic runners in my class but I was completely blown away on Thursday at our cross country. Every single person did their absolute best and I am so proud of them all.

Congratulations to: Sophie, Chloe and Grace who made the inter-schools team!

Here are some action shots of the room 6 athletes.

Scooter Skills

This Monday we enjoyed an amazing session with Andy from Auckland Council. He taught us how to ride our scooters safely.

First we learnt how to make an emergency stop.

Second we practiced our skills on four different courses.

Lastly we play a game that helped us with our gliding.

It was soooooo much fun!

Check out how we did below:

Teach the Teacher?

This week was our first week trialing 'Teach the Teacher'. This is where students get the opportunity to present an experiment, slide show, recipe or even a share a cultural tradition. Two lucky students will get the opportunity to present something each Friday for the rest of the term.

Our first student, Chloe, shared with us an enormous amount of information about her passion of cheerleading. It was so interesting learning about the different stunts, roles within a team and seeing video clips of people tumbling! Well done Chloe, you did a fantastic job and a special thanks to her awesome helper Sophie.



We are looking forward to Peyton and Benjamin's presentations next week.

Have a great weekend everyone and stay safe.
