This week we have settled in to our routines for the year.
We have started our weekly SED (super exciting drawing), Ten 4 10 (Write at least 10 lines in 10 minutes), Book club (for Novels and Journal Studies).
Our class Novel this term is The City of Ember. While I read the book, students are taking notes on characters and setting and we are going to recreate the book in Minecraft! We have 2 project managers and two teams. One for the city and one for the storerooms and tunnels beneath the ground.
In amongst all the serious moments of expectations and learning, we have had some fun. I introduced P2 to 'Go Noodle", a brain break site. Whenever I play something from this site, it is compulsary for everyone to stand up and do the activity. Because of this we now have a pretty cool class handshake!
We have also had a few games of Kahoot, and even spent some time with P1 (our other Puarenga year 7 class) as Tuakana Teina, teaching them how to use this great learning tool too.
Check out our dancing skills! We are a little uncoordinated at the moment :)
