Maths Workshop
"In this class we had to create a record of our timetable of all our activity over a period of five days (120 hours). Our table had to consist of time spent on physical activity, sleep, movement, sedentary activity, TV/electronic games, and reading. This task was very enjoyable and a little bit hard". Emily.
Michael notes: a consolidated table showing many student's activity was created from the numerous Excel spreadsheets used by students to record their information. This will be used for a follow-up activity that forms part of next week's learning agreement.
Teamwork Skills Workshop
"On Tuesday one of the rotations that all of the 5/6s did was with Mike. Mike was teaching us about teamwork. He showed us a few games that help us improve our team work skills. One game was called helum stick; in this game you had to ower a metre ruler to the ground. But the catch is that the whole group had to be touching the stick the wholetime, and there were also other rules that it harder. It was a great workshop and we learned a lot". Maggie
Personal Learning Skills Workshop
"In Meredith's class we went on the Ultranet and added our neighbourhood blog to our home page. Then we joined the group called 'Healthly & Alive' and added an answer to the question "what do you like to do to keep fit?" After that we made two folders with the headings 'Learning Goals' and 'Learning Reflection'. We can add something in each of these folders once a week". Olivia
