Today we wrapped up our Explanation Writing unit by making ice cream in a bag. After we had finished making and trying the ice cream we spent some time to write out the process. Check out our writing below
Kayaking
We had our last session up at the pool today, and what better way to end off the swimming unit that getting out the kayaks. We were encouraged to bring along clothes to swim in to get a feel for moving around in the water in something other than togs, we competed in some kayak relays, as well as practicing falling out of the kayak and then making our way to safety.
Devon Wipeout
Today was our first MANA Reward day for the year , our ahiahi MANA was Devon Wipeout, and everyone from ruma tekau was eligible. We got to move around the school at our own pace and go through different stations, including: the swimming pool, a bouncy castle, a water balloon wall, a waterslide, sponge face – where we got to throw a sponge at Miss Mercer’s face, as well as some obstacles like an army crawl. There was music playing, and the sun was out. It was a great first MANA Reward.
