active learning penguin sled

Today we have done active learning. We had to make a penguin sled with Waddles, Pocket and Frosty Big and Awesome, also Cheeky Blue. You need these materials, 1 piece of cardboard, 5 straws, 5 pipe cleaners, 90cm of tape and washers for weights and scissors.

1. First you find a  buddy to work with then you design your plan with your buddy 

2. Get two pipe cleaners and twist them around together.

3. And twist your other two pipe cleaners.

4. Then grab some tape and stick the pipe cleaners that are twisted and tape them to the cardboard.

5. Then you grab your penguin and lay it down and grab your 5th pipe cleaner and tape it like it is a seat belt.

And have fun with your penguin sled.

The looker on

We have been learning about poems. We were inspired by Frank Kendon's poem The Looker-On. We had to create a poem to describe part of the school. Here is my poem. 

A Placed Remember 7.3.19

He Puna Kawenga
 We had to describe our room without using personal pronouns such as I, me, you and she.

As the white door opened to the room a big king-single bed, with five stuffed animals staring at the door. The bed is so tall a stool is needed to climb on. It has covers they are dark grey and light blue. In the right hand comer is a little tent with pillows, a fluffy mat and on the tent there are stars. The desk is realy messy, its been messy for six weeks.
