Hedgehog slice's

3 weeks ago, room 11 made hedgehog slice's. It was a fun activity to do especially when doing it for learning. The purpose of us doing this was because our teacher was preparing us for an assessment that was based on procedural writing. Here are some photo's of room 11 cooking...

Vollyball

The first thing that room 11 did today was volleyball. My favourite thing to do. We do class sessions with our volleyball coach Toni. We learnt how to block a spike and continued learning all different kinds of skills to use when playing against other teams. It was so much fun.

Taking home my Chromebook

Yay! I finally get to take my Chromebook home. First we had to take our parents through a slide show that Mrs Grant prepared for us. It was a good opportunity to train my parents how to use a Chromebook properly and where to be at the right time.

Writing Workshop

Today 4 people got picked to go to St Heliers library. I was lucky enough to get this opportunity to work with a famous author named Melinda Szymanik. We learnt how to structure our writing in narratives better. There were other kids from different schools whose writings were very descriptive. It was a good time to learn off of other students that have different talents in writing that we don't have.

This is one of Melinda's books...
