Week 2 was a particularly busy one, with athletics on Tuesday and Pet Day on Friday. It's great to have the students involved in a range of activities and events for the last few weeks of the year!
Maths
All Room 2 students now have access to the excellent Maths Buddy website. The maths group that works with Mr Nelson on Thursdays have all had their first session on the site. The rest of the class will be introduced to the site in our ICT session on Thursday.
PE and Sport
Although we have had the athletics sports we will still be doing athletics as our major focus for the term. Congratulations to all of the students in Room 2 who have been selected for the inter school athletics event on Friday.
There are also Room 2 students who will be taking part in the inter school rippa rugby finals on Thursday.
ICT
We are learning how to make presentations on Google Docs (similar to the Powerpoint programme).
Languages
A new lesson has been posted on the Te Reo Maori blog. For the French blog, the same lesson is still the most current, as we have not yet started the clothing unit.
Testing
There have been some fantastic results from many of the Room 2 students in recent standardized testing. Mrs Hodgkinson and Mr Nelson are both extremely proud of the learning progress that is being made by the class.
Homework
A new homework sheet has been posted on the blog. You can access it through the link on the top right of this page.
Only six weeks to go Rm 2. I am impressed with some of the assessment results coming from you guys. It has been a full and busy year but I think we have all had moments of fun along the way. It will certainly be difficult to say farewell to you year eights. I can't believe that you are off to High school and that you year sevens will be Senior seniors.
