In room 9 we have been creating our own Matariki myths. We could either make it as a movie or a book. Some others used the paint app on the computers to make pictures for their books.
Here's one of our videos we hope you enjoy them.

Family Friday Week 7

On Friday the 5^th of June my mum came in and talked about the Philippines, she told us where it is and what part my family was from. She also told us about the population and the King and Queen and she made a PowerPoint. She also taught us a game where you have 3 people and the others have to try and get inside your square, and you have to try and get through all three squares and then you do it again and again until you have a winner.

Thanks mum for coming in.

Family Friday Week 6

This Friday my dad came in and taught us about orienteering. He created a map of the school and made a course for our class. We got into teams of two and three. Then we ran around the course to find codes and clues. At the end we needed to work out the code which was.....Room 9 is cool! He showed us a clip about orienteering and asked us if we wanted to do orienteering again and Room 9 all said yes! Thanks for coming in dad, you're the best!

Reign of God

 Jesus said, "With what can I compare God's Reign? The Reign of God is like the tiny piece of yeast that the baker woman mixes in with the three measures of flour. The little bit of yeast makes the flat dough slowly rise and grow into a lovely big, fat loaf of bread."      Luke 13:20-21

We learnt about the Reign of God and made some delicious bread. Below are pictures of when we role played how we can show the Reign of God everyday.
