OUR ASSEMBLY

Today we received a letter from our teachers.  They have asked us to organise, prepare and present our Piako Rua Assembly.  We are so excited!

In our homerooms we brainstormed all our ideas about Assembly.  Our teachers recorded our thinking.  They were blown away with the ideas we had:

• Lucy suggested we could have workshops for children wanting to present different items or help get different things ready (great idea Lucy)
• Molly suggested that the children who speak would need to be good readers to read the script
• Luca suggested we practise in Inquiry time
• Ethan said the people that speak would need to be able to speak clearly
• Sophie B suggested we bring one dress up item from home like we do each week at Piako 2 Whanau

We are so pleased that we get to share OUR learning with you at Assembly.  We've got until week 4 to be organised!  We've got a lot to do so we better start straight away!

TECH-TUESDAY

Today we had our first Tech-Tuesday.  Mrs Lunn and Miss Crowther issued us with a challenge!

We had to make a toy.

The success criteria was as follows:

1.  Your toy must move our make a noise
2.  Your toy must be fun to play with
3.  Your toy must be CREATIVE

We brainstormed in groups what we could make and then we drew a plan.  Next we spend ages making our marvelous creations!

We also learnt how to make a flow chart to show other people the steps to making our toy.

We had great fun!
