Our theme for this week was ANZAC Day. With ANZAC being a part of New Zealand's history, we thought it was important to further our knowledge of some of the events.
We talked about how the ANZAC soldiers kept in contact with their friends and family back at home. We discussed how they would be feeling being away from them for so long. Because of Covid-19, we haven't been able to see some of our own friends and family. Our tasks was to write a letter to someone that we missed.
Check out some of the letters that we wrote!
Letter by Teokatai.
Letter by Ema.
Letter by Cora.
Letter by Autumn.
Letter by Anthony.
Feel free to visit their blogs and leave a positive comment.
We are a class of year 5 and 6 learners, and our teacher is Miss Tuiā. We can't wait to share our learning with you!

Kahoot via. Google Meets
Today our class did a fun afternoon activity. We played Kahoot with our teacher via Google Meets.
The quiz was all about the Earth and even though some questions were hard, we had fun doing it online with our peers.
Congratulations to those who made it onto the podium - Paula (3rd place), Exodus (2nd place) and Cora (1st place).
Hopefully we can play it again!

Story Starters
WALT: write creatively.
One of the tasks that the students in Room 6 were given was called Story Starters. Our teacher gives us the start of the story and we have to continue it. In these stories, we use our imagination and then we make sure to use creative words to make it interesting.
Check out what some of our learners did!
Kasaline: Journey to school.
It was a cold, bright morning as this young girl named Kate and young boy named Andrew walked to school as they arrived at school. They were waiting in their classroom for the students and the teacher to come and sit them down until the bus came along and take the students to their destination. Once the teacher and the students arrived the teacher did the roll and they walked in a line to the bus and that's where everyone is then all of the teachers send their children to sit down on the bus and once everyone settled then the teachers got on and the driver closed the door and then he drove to the place that they needed to go to for their trip. Then they arrived at the place and they got off and they said thank you to the driver who drove them to the place. When they got there they started to explore the mountain. Then it was time for lunch and then the children walked to sit down and eat their food. Once everyone was finished eating their lunch they went for one more exploration of the mountain. After it was time to go they got everything and got on the bus then the teachers did the roll again to make sure that everyone was here once the teachers did the roll then they told the driver to go and he went back to school where the parents were waiting to pick up their kids and they all had a great time.
Taoro: Dragons.
Dragons above the clouds, dragons in the sky with their Wings flapping in the sky causing strong winds to be felt on Earth’s surface. The things the dragons do above the clouds was making the humans very scared because above the clouds these two dragons were fighting over an egg the other dragon was trying to get the egg because that egg was that dragons egg then the other was trying to steal the egg from its mum. Next they did when the were fighting the other dragon was going to shoot out fire even the other dragon was going to shoot out fire but then when they shot out fire the humans were screaming as HECK! But once they didn't have any energy they fell to the ground and smashed onto the grass causing a big deep hole. Then once it was over the humans came out and did not see a single dragon in their life so they continued living their life.
Kelly: Dragons.
Wings flapping in the sky causing strong winds to be felt on Earth’s surface.
What was happening above the clouds? Wait, what was that? Roars blaring from the sky making humans become worried.
Wings continued to flap and the dragons soaring through the clouds. Everyone shouted AAHHHHH!!!, HELP.
With everyone panicking it made everything worse the dragons started sending others of their species. Someone had an idea but officially no one would listen so he had another idea. What he did was drived and got a lot of puppys so everyone will listen. The world still continued to shake so the man had to hurry. Everyone he shouted “we needa stick together and make sure we stay calm with the puppys in a box because everyone likes puppys so everyone will look at the puppys and yeah.
