Term 1 Drama Assessment

In room 3 we have been learning to speak clearly and present clearly in Drama.  We have done so well with our speaking.  Here is our assessment of speaking for Term 1 which we filmed last week.

Exciting Visitors in Room 3

Today Room 3 had some exciting visitors! We had 2 students who are in their last year of their Communications Degree at AUT come in and interview us about our netbooks.  The students are making a short film about the Manaiakalani Programme and were interested in what we were doing in our class.  
First they spoke to Miss G for a while about what she thought about teaching with the netbooks and what were the positives about them.  They then wandered around with their camera and took some footage of us working on our netbooks.  A few questions were asked of the students and they shared some great thoughts about their netbooks and their learning.  One of our students was then interviewed at her house with her Mum and they were asked about what it is like to have a netbook at home.  
What a wonderful way to end our first week of Term 2.

Term 2 Topic

This term we are going to be looking at Schools in the past, now and tomorrow.  We will be researching what schools were like in the past and imagining what they will be like in the future.

Here is the brainstorm of our prior knowledge that we put together today using Wallwisher.com

Rm 3's Vocal Performance at Assembly

Wow! Room 3 are so clever. Some of our students wrote a song for our assembly about having Faith in yourself. We then as a whole class put actions to it and presented it to the school today at our Virtue assembly. Here is the footage taken of them performing it.
