TERM 4

Hurray! It's the start of a new term. The kids (and I!) were happy to be back today.
Please take this time to ensure that your favourite Room 18er is coming to school in proper uniform. While it may be tempting to postpone any uniform purchases until the start of next year, please remember that it is for your son/daughters safety that they come in correct school uniform. Yes, this a BIG reminder for all to help make sure that school hats are at school EVERY day. Students will be missing out on fitness, playtimes outside covered/shaded areas, P.E., etc if they are without sunhats. It is the responsibility of the students themselves to make sure they are remembering their sunhats, but sometimes a little help from Mum/Dad goes a long way! (-;


Mind Mapping

Room 18 used the "What If?" Thinking Key today for our introduction into the world of paper-making. This term we will complete our year of Inquiry under the theme of 'Survival'.
At the bottom of the blog, the mind map of Room 18's thoughts should appear. This is our starting point. We will hopefully be adding to this throughout the term.

Our Inquiry

In Term 3, we were looking at the changes that can take place in biomes. At the bottom of the blog, the students have completed a 'VoiceThread'. The students chose to share some of the things they've learned about either the polar biome or the desert biome. You can click on the pictures of each student next to the VoiceThread picture to hear what they have to say.

An Email To Mr. Nash


Dear Mr Nash,


For my birthday my brother and I went to TV3.

We watched the News being recorded. We then went to look at C4. (the music channel)

We got to meet Alasdair, Hillary and John Campbell. They were all very kind to Matthew and me. They love having visitors and said that we could come back again. They were very happy to have us there at TV3.

We really enjoyed watching TV3 being recorded. It was fun sitting in the News Presenters Chairs!


From Chloe


Bye Mr Nash we will see you after the holidays.

Ginger's Adventure With Callum

When Ginger got home we had a teddy party on the trampoline. Ginger made lots of new friends. After that, we had dinner at McDonalds. Ginger liked the chips. Ginger listened to me reading my book and then I took him to bed and had cuddles.

Ginger's the best.
