Thursday 26th March

This morning Room 21 did Te Reo Maori, we learnt how to say how we felt in Maori.
In Room 23 maths we are figuring out how to multiply long equations and in Room 21 we were learning about using bus and train timetables with the 24 hour clock.
In literacy we are designing our own islands. We have to draw them up and describe it in the report we are currently writing.
After that we worked on the laptops, some of us finished our Alien Invasion report and the others had the opportunity to work on our wiki pages.
This afternoon we had Kapa-Haka and went out for a game.

Today some of the year 7 and 8 students were able to participate in the Southern Zone Swimming Sports. It was a great day with many of the students having successful results.

Today is our first day without swimming so we are sadly back to a normal timetable. Many of us are currently editing and publishing our alien reports. Here are a couple of brief examples:

When Aliens Attack

Troublesome Terror for Town

On Monday 16th of March 2009 aliens landed in the small town of Roswell, a small town millions of miles away from civilization. It is still unknown why aliens only land in America.

The aliens first arrived by a U.F.O that came from Planet X from the Solana galaxy. Planet X is hidden millions of miles away from Earth it has only recently been discovered but astronomers describe it as a useless dusty rock, like Mars, except it’s green with an asteroid belt surrounding it. The planets diameter is 1,602, 083,201 kilometres wide and 1,602, 083, 200 kilometres wide. It is believed that more life forms live on this planet...

Today room 21 edited our wikis. We put in them lots of stuff like our hobbies, stuff we liked, stuff we disliked and any other stuff you can think of. We also put in photos and videos (from youtube). Later on in the year we will use our wiki pages to share and publish our work.

Here are some great wikis so far:
