Fun with Bee Bots

 Kia Ora,

In Room 6 we have been reading 'The Wild Robot' by Peter Brown as one of our Chapter Chat novels.  Whaea Kirstin and Miss P decided that it would be a fantastic opportunity for our Year 3/4/5 kids to have a go at coding online and to learn all about algorithms.  Because Room 5 and 6 were so amazing with their coding, we went one step further and purchased real life robots!  The learning has been rich, much patience has been needed and the cooperative working and discussion has been fantastic.  Bee bots are soooooo much fun!

Our T-shirts

For our art gallery this year, Room 6 created kiwiana inspired pop art.  We drew our image, Miss P then took a photo and then we uploaded the image onto our chrome books.  From these images we created our pop art.  Miss P downloaded our pop art as a pdf and then got them printed on to t-shirts.  We are SO proud!

 

Music with Fran Term 3

 3.09.20

Today we started Music in the hall with Fran.  Some of us got to play the glockenspiel, the tambourines and the giro.  Oscar got two sticks that when you hit them with a cupped hand, they made a really awesome sound.  We got to play "We Will Rock You."  Next week we get to have a go on the violins.  We can't wait!
