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.

te papa trip

TE PAPA Trip
 
 







On Tuesday the 2nd of July room 11 and some other classes went on a Te Papa trip we travelled there by bus with parents on board. When we got there we had some morning tea at the entrance of Te Papa. While the first group went up for there matariki session. My group had hannnah, Adain, Charlie, and George. After we went into Te Papa and we put our bags in this cage so we didn’t have to carry them around.

Then we went into awesome forces with our parent Adains dad. We had to a pad to answer questions. We saw these lave rocks they were really heavy. Next I jumped on the rictor jump I only got up  to 3. Then it got funnier I went into the earthquake house but it was not really shaky. Then we went up to blood earth fire it was really fun we went in this thing called find the invaders witch we had  to find incects in a crate. Next we had a look at the moari art then we went on this nice lookout it was really windy.

Next we went to our matariki session there was a man telling us about matariki. He toke us into starland. Starland is a tent where you go inside you turn the lights off and all the matariki stars sine on the sky there were red and green ones to. The green ones are the younger stars and the red stars are the older stars.



After matariki session we had free time. I looked at the quid plus we had to control this big fat baby. Then we played giant connect 4 Then we looked at the olden day stuff. I really liked having free time and we toke a little look at the kids discovery centre.

Next we got at the entrance of Te Papa got our bags out of the cages hopped on the bus and headed back to school.
