Creative Dance

Rooms 7 and 8 have been learning about dance. In groups of 4 we had to create a dance that had different levels (high, medium, low) and we had to add movements including push and pull, twist, on, under, through and around.

We hope you enjoy our movie!

Air Resistance

On Thursday we learnt about air resistance and the effect it has on speed. Check out our video to see  what we found out!

Grandparents day

On Friday we had grandparents day! it was really great sharing our learning with our grandparents. As part of the special day we wrote character descriptions about one of our grandparents.

Science Alive

Last Monday Room 8 learnt about forces, we learnt that there are forces on the planet that help objects to move for example gravity keeps us on earth and air resistance helps an object to float depending on the area of the shape. Here are some of our photos:

This week in Room 8

Well done to Ben, who gained his orange tip grading this week in martial arts.

This week we also had a visit from Mitchell's youngest sister Lexi who is nearly 4 weeks old. She is very cute and little! We all know that Mitchell will be an amazing big brother!

Next week we will be having a visitor from the University of Canterbury who will be teaching us some drama and we are all looking forward to practising using respect with our guest. Don't forget to check out our inquiry links to see what our inquiry topic this term is.

Respect

This week Room 8 has been focussing on the value respect and what it means at Kaiapoi North School. We decided that it is looking after school equipment, listening carefully to others and picking up after ourselves. Over the next two weeks we will be doing dance and drama in the afternoons.  Watch this space to check out our amazing dancing and drama!
