Woven Koru



Miss Lind saw some cool Koru designs in the holidays and came back to show us. We thought that they looked pretty cool too so we decided to make them ourselves. We had to weave our backgrounds first and then had to draw a koru design that we could cut out of the black paper to put overtop of the weaving. Here are some for you to have a look at.


Newspapers

We are now back at school for term 3. For the beginning of the term we are using the Newspapers In Education resource as our reading programme. Each child gets a newspaper every day and there are activities related to the newspaper and a story that is written in the paper especially for the children. Room 13 is loving making their way through the papers and completing the activities. Here we are hard at work.

Our Culture Swap Powerpoints

When we had been to every country in our syndicate wide culture swap we took our passports with us to the computer suite. When we were in the computer suite we had to turn the information in them into a powerpoint presentation. We learnt how to hyperlink and 'spruce up' our presentations. You can have a look at some of the presentations by going to our class knowledgenet page. Here is the link to take you there Greenpark KnowledgeNET
