Welcome to this Room 11 blog. Our learning philosophy is to LEARN, CREATE an artifact that shows our learning, and then SHARE it in creative ways, including posting it here on this blog.The purpose of this blog is for students to become accustomed to sharing their learning, recieving feedback, and preparing them for having their very own blog.While students will make every effort to have work corrected and error free it is in fact authentic student work, showing where students are at, and so there are likely to be some mistakes. The aim is to note progress and improvement, and we expect to see this over time.

Waikanae School goes te pa pa


On Tuesday the 2nd of July the teararnawana Waikanae school kids went to Te papa for a fun trip. The children from Waikanae to Wellington by bus. Most of the children  said this is a very long trip on the bus. About 6 of the  kids had  electronics. Like tablets and ipods. I don’t think we were aloud electronics whispered Jasmine. When it was time to hop off the bus  the kids were eager to just run to Te Papa.

The chidren were eager to run off and just run to Te papa. But all the children had to wait and line up in their groups  with there parents. When the children got to Te papa all the children got given a sheet off paper with some activities to do. Kellys group went to the earth quake house while kellys group was waiting for there turn in the earthquake house the children jumped on the rector scale jump to see how far the rector scale could go. Once the children jumped on the scale they wrote how far the scale went up on there piece of paper . When the kids were in the earthquake house the children put there pencil on a sheet off paper to see how much the pencil jiggles round while in the house.
Heavy rocks
Lets go to the heavy rocks said jasime. Okay said Kelly. When the group got there they tried to lift the rocks. One of the rocks are heavy said jasime in a puff. I can only lift 2 of the rocks said kenza. Me too said Jasmine. In the booklets the children wrote what rock was the heaviest.
Montain of the sea!
At the mountain of the sea there was a long octopus about 10 feet long. Aww this is a dead octopus this is disgusting screamed jasimine. Come have a look st this mum I made a octopus on the computer said kenza. That’s cool kenza like your octopus let  me take a photo said jasmine. Okay said Kenza. After this group has explored the mountain of the sea it was lunch time.
