<b><span style="color: yellow; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Hi, Bloggers last week we went on a ski trip for four days. We stayed at the national park hotel and got served some DELICIOUS dinner and pudding. On our journey MT RUAPEHU we stopped at different places like, Hamilton gardens , Otorohanga walk way. At Hamilton gardens we did a scavenger hunt all around the gardens to find specific photos that Ms Sands had taken. It was so much Fun and Hamilton Gardens is an amazing place to visit. We stopped at Tamarnui Primary School for afternoon tea and to stretch our leg and for a play. When we reached our accommodation we had free time in our rooms sorting out our gear. That night we went for a walk in the dark to a nearby park. The next day was the most exciting of all we finally got to head up to the mountain and see the SNOW. Up on the mountain we were dived into skiing and snowboarding groups to get started and get our boards and ski's but MAN was the gear difficult to put on so hard getting our feet into the boots. But after that, the real fun started.</span></b></div>
<span style="color: yellow;"><b><span style="color: lime; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></b><b><span style="color: lime; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;">Up on the mountain one the first and second day, we all got ski or snow boarding lessons. These were super useful as it taught us how to stop in the snow and how to turn and avoid people so we didn't get hurt. The first day on the snow was the most difficult because we were on our bottoms a lot and we had to keep picking ourselves up all the time. But we all should so much resilience and determination not to give up and keep trying until we got the hang of it. The best news is by the end of the first day most of us were able to ski from the top the the bottom of the mountain without falling over quiet as much and by day two we all had it nailed and were like Olympic athletes Haha. </span></b></span><br />
<span style="color: yellow;"><b><span style="color: lime; font-family: "verdana" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></b>
<b style="font-family: verdana, sans-serif;">We have so much more news to share but we think its better if you the fantastic bloggers ask us questions. Ask us questions that you would like to find out about our awesome trip. Below is a slideshow of some of the photos of our trip.</b></span><br />

<span style="color: cyan; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Waitemata went on tinker-cad for Maths this week and made our own park. When we used Tinker-Cad we had to make equipment to play on out of 3D shapes. We were allowed to create any playground we wanted BUT we had to be creative. Below is an example of some work done by one of our new and very talented year 4 students Paula's work. Please feel free to comment.</span></div>

We have even had a </span>parade to showcase the wonderful characters we have here in our school. Below is just a snap shot of some of the fun that we have had here this week</b></span>. </div>

We have been creating the sounds of sweet sweet music (and some not so sweet sweet music) whist looking at how we can connect our bodies through music. For our Music and Dance unit this term we have been starting to look at Music and what influence music has over us. For our first and second dance and music sessions we have been looking at how we can use our bodies to create different shapes and forms as well as making music that enhances and creates a certain type of mood. Below are just a couple of videos of the awesome work we have created thus far. Please feel free to comment and tell us what you think.</span><span style="background-color: white;"> </span></span><span style="background-color: white;"> </span></span></span></div>

<b><span style="color: magenta; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Welcome Bloggers!! This week the newly named but still mighty Waitemata (Room 7) have been very excited to have the opportunity to combine Drama, Technology and Inquiry all into one. For our Inquiry we have been learning all about our environment and whats been happing in it. We also this year have been doing Drama. So we thought why not do both and use technology as a medium to show it. For the first time also we got to use the green screen in our new classroom that we were super exited about. Below is the movie we came up with. We hope you like it and please feel free to comment. </span></b></div>

Mr Ross wanted to know how much we actually knew about Matariki before we got started. So he gave us the challenge to fill out a Padlet with information of what we already know. Boy oh Boy was he super impressed and taken a back with just how much we already knew. Here is the Padlet of what we produced. We challenge you bloggers to leave a comment and see if you can add even more information.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="color: red; font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">We in Room 7 are passionate about learning and celebrating the sacrifice made by all the brave men and woman in WW1 and WW2. We watched a wide range of video clips, read books and researched information on our Chromebooks to learn from others just how scary and mind blowing going to war must have been. We truely cannot show enough gratitude to all those involved, not only on the men and woman on the front lines. But also all those involved in the medical and aid side of things. What we also discovered was what a huge toll it took on all the families back here at home and that is something that cannot be underestimated. What we know for certain is that we never want to see a repeat of what has happened before and that war and loosing loved ones is never the answer to any problem the world may face. Below are just a few pictures of the celebration for the Anzacs we had here at school. We would also like to say instead of using your precious time commenting on this post, we would love it if you could go and do a good dead for someone else. Even if its just to say hello and give a complement to someone you might not always talk too. </span></b></div>

<span style="color: cyan; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>For our Kiwi Sport activity this Term we have been learning all about the wonderful game of Badminton. Our Awesome teacher Daniel has been teaching us all sorts of techniques and terminology around Badminton. We learnt different ways to hold our racket so we can hit a backhand or forehand correctly. Boy oh Boy did we get good at hitting that shuttlecock, although it did take us a while to get use to. It's so much harder than hitting a tennis ball thats for sure. Here is a video and some photos of us in action. Hope you enjoy and Blog you later. </b></span></div>

<span style="color: yellow; font-size: large;"><b>The Mighty Waikowhai 1 and Waikowhai 2 went to the Central Rippa competition run by Auckland Rugby. Their were 26 teams involved and we played at Cox's Bay reserve in Auckland. Unfortunately Waikowhai 2 were eliminated in the quarter finals but we were all so proud of them for the amazing efforts they put in. However our Waikowhai 1 team played amazingly well and won the whole competition for the first time in the school's history. They showcased their outstanding skills and team work throughout the day and were thoroughly deserving of their tile win. The most exciting news is that their amazing run is not yet over and now we get to go to Eden Park and play for Auckland Champions. GOOOOOOOOOOO WAIKOWHAI !!! Congratulations to Max, Hame, Conroy, Nevaeh, Skye and Shiya from Room 7 who were involved. Here is a Video of our day and our apologies for the poor picture quality the file was to big. </b></span></div>

<b><span style="color: lime; font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif; font-size: large;">Over the past two weeks the mighty Room 7 have been creating some outstanding pieces of writing. We have been looking at creative ways to write stories by using using story starters. For inspiration we watched some videos from famous New Zealanders about how important writing is to their success. You can watch the video's by clicking on this link. https://goo.gl/0HyKKl. After watching these videos we then could not wait to get started and create our own magical masterpieces. Here are just a few examples of the work we produced. Please feel free to leave us a comment of what you think of our work. </span></b></div>

<span style="color: cyan; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><b>After a short hiatus for christmas and new years, Room 7 is back and ready to rumble. We have an exciting new class with lots of new members whist still keeping some of our wonderful old students from last year. This year we are super excited about all the new learning activities that we have planned as well as our big move into our new class rooms in term 2 but more to come on that later. But for our first post of the year here are some photos of some of the things we have been up to so far this year.</b></span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: orange; font-family: Courier New, Courier, monospace; font-size: large;">Today James taught us how to use google maps to map out different types of information. Today we were mapping out where in the world each member of our class was born. Firstly had to collect our data, we did this by inputting all of our information onto a shared doc. As it turned out a lot of the members from Room 7 were born in Auckland Hospital but we do have some members that were born all over the world which is so cool. Below you can see just where everyone was born. Hope you enjoy and feel free to leave us a comment. </span></div>

We have been learning about what it takes to have respect for not only ourselves but others as well. We brainstormed and noted words and phrases of ways that we can show respect in our everyday lives. What we need to do next was find a interesting medium that could get our message across and make everyone sit up and listen. So we made a RAP!

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
It is that time of the year again when us kids at Waikowhai Primary get out creative juices flowing to produce fabulous pieces of art to go on display for our parents and community to come and view. This year Room 7 decided that we would really push ourselves and create some 3D clay sculptures. We also as a class had to come up with a theme to go with out Art so we decided to go with MYTHICAL CREATURES. Because we knew working with clay was never going to be easy we had to stay really focused and have a good plan of what we had to do so we would get a really good end result. Firstly we had to sketch out and draw what we wanted our creature to look like. Then we used play dough to mould our 3D shape so if we made a mistake we could fix. Next step for sure was the most fun. We got to play with and mould the sticky, slimy clay into what we wanted our Mythical Creatures to look like. We also got to get our hands and some of us not naming names ;-) got our cloths really dirty which was so fun. Firing the clay in the kiln was the next step that had to be done because this was to make the clay rock hard and able to be painted. Unfortunately some of our creatures arms or legs did not survive this part of the process but because we are super talented we made it work. Then all we had to do was paint our creatures with the colours that we wanted to make them stand out in the crowd.</div>
<br />
Room 7 being as hard working as we are were not satisfied with just creating 3D clay work so we pushed ourselves even more and created a story about our Mythical Creature on google slides. We did this so our parents knew some background about were and why our creatures came about. But how were we going to be able to show our google slides without printing them off? It was alright as we had this covered as well. We created QR codes that could sit along side our work. Pretty talented we reckon.<br />
<br />
Below are some photos and slides about the journey we went on to create our awesome creations. Hope you enjoy if you would like to see more of the finished products click on our individual learning blogs to the right. Also feel free to comment as we love your comments.<br />

So as a class we thought long and hard and brain stormed ideas of ways that we could get the whole school reading. What we came up with was that we have such amazing books in our schools library that we need to advertise these more and what better way to do this than to make book trailers.</b></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b><br /></b></span>
<span style="color: cyan; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b>So Mr Ross set everyone in the class a task of over a week long period to complete one reading book from our library that we would enjoy reading and could advertise to the school. Our next step was to compile a load of photos that we found on the internet that match the story we painted in our heads from the book and that could also tell our story without giving to much away. After this the real fun began we got to go onto Imovie and select a trailer theme that matched our story. There we so many themes to pick from there was adventure, scary, teen, adrenaline plus so many more. Then the most complicated part of the book trailer was left till last. We had to sequence all our pictures we gathered together and add really good descriptive language to give our audience a little taste of what our books are about without giving any of the important parts of the story away. Below are just a couple of examples of some of the book trailers we made. If you would like to see more of our book trailers then check out our individual learning blogs found to the right of this page. Enjoy and feel free to leave a comment. </b></span><br />

<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="color: lime; font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;"><b style="background-color: black;">Room 7 have welcomed in the new term with a bang. We thought we would get really hands on with our learning this week to build on from the work that did last term around electricity. Alongside Rooms 8 and 9 we tackled creating our own electrical circuits using the "Brain Box" kits. Our goal was to work as a cohesive group of three, concentrate, have fun and follow the instructions of the booklet to create some fantastic creations. Not only did we achieve this but we even managed to create some of our own circuits. Here are some of the examples of our work. </b></span></span></div>

<span style="color: cyan;"><b>The mighty Room 7 have been at it again! This time we have created an fantastic video that we would like to share with you all. Our challenge was to tell a story in 6 words or less. In the beginning of the writing process we found it difficult to try and express ourselves using just the 6 words. However, over the week we worked super hard and started to experiment using more descriptive language in our stories. By doing this we unleashed our inner writer and came up with what we think is a awesome Video. Have a watch and tell us what you think.</b></span></div>

Rooms Seven, Eight and Nine went on a fabulous, back to basics, old school camp out at Muriwai beach last week. The aim of our camp was to be pushed outside our comfort zones and challenge ourselves away from the classroom setting. <b><i>BOY OH BOY, </i></b>did we do this. We pushed ourselves in ways that we had never done before with the most exciting thing being, no matter how hard it got we never gave up and we achieved things that we never thought we could. We got pelted by rain, covered in mud, blown off track, had wobbly legs, walked in the dark and you know what the best part of it all was. <b><i>WE LOVED EVERY MINUTE.</i></b><br />
