Rosie's If I was In Charge of the World Poem

If I were in Charge of the World

If I were in charge of the world,

I’d cancel stinky cows that always

have a bad smell when you

go close to them.

I will even cancel

the little baby ones.

If I were in charge of the world,

There would be floating people

so they don’t have to pollute

with cars and there will even

be floating robbers so we can see

them steal our stuff.

If I were in charge of the world,

You wouldn’t have any landfill

so the earth wouldn’t even have

a single bit of glad wrap.

If I were in charge of the world,

A computer would be for free

and a person who always plays

the same game and sometimes

takes selfies, would still be

allowed to be in charge of the world.

Mia's Teach the Teacher

Mia taught us how to make a box out of paper.  She gave clear instructions and made sure we all understood each step.

Measurement

We are learning about millilitres and litres. We had to measure and compare different amounts of liquid.  We used different sized containers and measuring jugs.

Room 14 Quotes about our Learning

"I learnt how to measure using a measuring jug" Jamie

"We used dye to help us measure, this helped us see the marks on the jug clearer" Isabelle

"We saw that 1000mls is the same as 1L" Rosie

"I learnt that 250mls is equal to 1 cup" Oscar

As a class we also worked out that there are 4 cups in a litre because if you add 250 mls together 4 times it will equal 1 litre, we could also say 250mls multiplied by 4.

Fractions using Mandarins

We worked out fraction addition and subtraction problems using mandarins.  It was yummy maths today!

Matariki Celebrations

We read the story Seven Stars of Matariki by Toni Rollerston. In our art we are flying our kite at night in the wind, our kite will fly away to make the 7th star, can you see the wind gusts?  Come into the class to see the rest of our beautiful art.

Sugar in Food

Mrs Robb came to talk to us about being Label Detectives.

Mia learnt that Cocoa Pops has more than 15g (which is our recommended amount).

 Neerav found that cartoon characters on boxes of cereal means they will have more sugar in it.

Tanya found out that Powerade has the same amount of sugar as 12 chocolate chip cookies.

Making Google Slides

We have been learning how to make Google Slides, we love our big buddies!  We told them using a slideshow!  Click on the youtube link and you will hear our favourite song that Room 6 shared with us.

Family of Facts

This morning we had the Room 15 and 14 Year 3s, we made family of facts streets.  The houses represent 'the family'.

Our Poetree

We wrote haiku poems today about chameleons.  We had to learn all about this camouflaging reptile before we wrote our poems, did you know they are carnivores?

We made a bar graph using Google Sheets, it shows the months everyone in Room 14 were born.
