Book Donations

In Room Five, we are doing book donations. Book donations is to help people to read more and variety of books. Other kids from different classes, could you please donate any unwanted books to help our class be better readers. 

We are doing something where you can choose your own books from the library. We do something called P.I.C.K. Pick stands for: 

P: Purpose; Why I want to read the book?
I: Interest; Does it interest me?
C: Comprehension; Do I understand it?
K: Know; Do I know most of the words?

We also do this thing that is called the five finger test. You turn to a random page and read it. If there is a word that you don't know, thats 1 finger down. if there is another three or four, then maybe that books a bit to hard for you. If there is there is one more word that you don't know, try another page of that book or another book.

Paper Chain - Guinness World Records .

At the end of this term we may be attempting to break the Guinness World Record for the longest paper chain. The world record stands as 380m and we want to get over 380 to maybe 500 meters.

If we accomplish this mission to break the world record we will call someone to come and we will prove that the hard work we have done is true . If we do finish this record then we will be proud members of the Guinness world records 2015.

baking for Geremi

Room 9 are selling baking for money to help Geremi in Africa to help them get well and grow plants and eat more healthy food.

People in Africa are very lucky because we are helping them with their lives by rising money to grow sources and solar powered water tanks and heating and doctors and medication for the ill people.

Help the children in Africa at World support

They told us how to dive for the ball and we had a lot of people from room 5 who could hit so hard that it went into the playground and they were batting from the eco hut.

Last night we had fireworks, Their were a great display of Fireworks at Tahunanui Beach.
People from near and far gathered all around to see the marvelous event go on.

Some people spent over $200! on fireworks.Some other people didn't even get any at all and sometimes sat on their Roof, to view the amazing fireworks. There are many types of fireworks, such as Big ones, sparklers, wands that shoot fireworks and way more!
Some fireworks even cost $500!
It was an amazing night.
