Kapow! The Germs Are Gone.

Can Room Ten make soap BETTER? We think so.

Our class have had great fun planning and making soap.
We think that you WILL want to use it!

This movie aired on School TV earlier today and shows our designs and how we made them.
We hope you enjoy it. Write us a comment and tell us which soap would make you
wash your hands.

Flying Paper Planes

Suli has recorded himself sharing his story which he wrote for his writing test.
He has written a wonderful story about making and flying a paper plane.
He hopes you enjoy it.

MAKE IT BETTER!

As part of our topic studies we have been thinking about how to make things
Bigger, Better, Faster and Stronger.

To help is learn the technology process before we make our soap better so children would want to use it, we decided to practice the process on something else.

We chose Beyblades!

All By Herself

Several times during the year we have independent writing tests to see how good we are getting at writing. Here is Khaia's wonderful story which she wrote without the support of the teacher.
Hasn't she done well!

Lets Make Paper Planes!

To help us learn about the technology process and to help inspire us for our writing test, Room Ten has made paper planes. Each team chose a plane from the website http://www.10paperairplanes.com and then tested them to see which plane flew the best.

Check it out!

Paper Planes

Elizabeth has written a colourful story about flying paper planes. It is full of descriptive word groups.

Have you ever wondered what if?

Have you ever been inspired by a book?

In this movie Room Ten shares how they have been inspired by a book they recently read in class.

Simon Walks In The Fog

Simon has written an excellend introduction to his story about getting to school on a foggy day.
He hopes you enjoy his story.

"Brr it's Cold "said Paris!

Paris has also written a successful introduction to her story about getting to school on a cold and foggy morning.

Remember to be successful she needed to:

*Start with a hook - Can you hear her hook at the start of her story?
* Use clever words to describe
* Tell the reader Who? What? Where? When? Why?

Foggy Morning by Louis

Room Ten have been working on writing a successful introduction to our story.
To be successful Louis had to do the following:

*Start with a hook to get the reader interested
* Use clever words to describe
* Tell the reader who?, what?, where?, when?, why? and how?

We think Louis has written a brilliant introduction about what it was like one foggy morning.

Musial Statues By Night

Night has written a wonderful story about playing musical statues.
He has begun his story in a very clever way with a hook to get the audience interested.
Watch his movie to find out if his opening sentence makes you want to hear more of his story.
We are sure it will!

Kahui Writes About Google Searching

Before we played musical statues we did some research on Google Images to find out what made a good statue. Kahui writes about what he saw when he did his Google Search.

Musical Statues by Lucy

Lucy has written an amazing story about playing musical statues.
She has been working on sequencing the story and writing in paragraphs. Watch her movie and listen to her story. We are sure you will hear that she has written what happened in sequence and use paragraphs.
Great job Lucy you make Room 10 proud.

Lets use our imaginations Room 10!

To inspire us for writing Room Ten have been pretending to be statues.
First we did some research on Google and looked at images of statues.
Next we searched You Tube and watched some amazing human statues in action. Miss Burne then asked to think about the qualities of both kinds of statues and then we played musical statues and tried to be as still as some of the statues we had seen.

Here is a short movie of our game of musical statues. Do you think we are a still as a statue?


We are busy writing our stories this week so keep checking our blog to see and hear what we wrote.

Ronn was the videographer for this movie. I am sure you agree he has done an amazing job filming our writing experience.

Writing Instructions

Room Ten have been learning how to write instructions. We imagined that an Alien has visited Room Ten from out of space to learn how we make, do and operate things.

We have been instructing our alien to make, do and operate many things. This short movie and piece of writing shows how we instructed our alien to make Fairy Bread which is sometimes served at childrens birthday parties. See if you can follow our instructions and make Fairy Bread too.
