Kiwi Can

For kiwi can today we learnt about being a role-model and who is our role model. Last week we talked about listening to others. For our energizer we played the game hammer down. We played it and it was really fun then we moved onto our talking session where we talked about who and what our role-model does (My role model is my mum.) Then for our activity we played picture it. Its where you get into groups and try to make the shape with our body (Hands, Feet, Head Etc.)

Kiwi Can Leadership

At Kiwi Can we learnt about Leadership. This is really important this year because we are the senior students at Panmure Bridge School. We need to take risks, show confidence and be a role model for our junior students. Being a leader is hard and is something we never stop learning about. Confidence comes with practise and sometimes getting it wrong.

Place Names

For Inquiry we had a map of New Zealand and marked all of the placed with names in them but not just any name. We found the names of early explorers (Kupe, Captain Cook and others.) There were some places that I didn't know that it was named after a early explorers.

Charting our islands

Today for reading we were finding about the early explorers Kupe and Captain James Cook. First we summarised about the word that were important in the story of kupe. Then we asked some questions and picked 3 that we could awnser. after that we found some word's we didn't understand then we used our searching skills to fnd out the words we didn't know. Then for our word bank we had the word navigate and it was difficult to find other words relating to navigate. After that we talked about the problems from the past and the present. Then we linked our Venn Diagram to the slide so when you click on the venn diagram you can see the actual venn diagram. Finally we've  completed our work of with our question matrix.
