Our Theme/Inquiry Wonderings
Our topic for Inquiry/theme is 'walking in other's shoes'. We are learning lots about who helps in a disaster and how. For this, we have split into groups and completed our own individual wonderings. After we have found out some information on our wonderings we had to display it in an interesting way. We have displayed them in ways such as videos, posters and songs. Here is one group's wondering, they have completed a news report. This was created by Mary, Katelyn, Annnaliese and Jessica. Enjoy the video!

Learning in Statistics
On Monday we are beginning a new Math's Unit around Statistics. We will be covering many important concepts over the four week period that has been reserved for this very important Maths strand.
Below are two links that will help to reinforce learning around finding the mean (average) of a set of numbers and finding the median of a set of numbers. Enjoy!

Metaphors for Tsunamis
We have been learning about these powerful natural disasters. We are also learning how to give our information reports impact by using metaphors. Here are some of the metaphors we have used for Tsunamis:
A wave of sorrow hit Japan and had devastating effects - Kate
A gaping mouth of water swallowed the land - Amber
A massive wall of water hit Japan - Mary
My challenge to you is to add more metaphors to our list.
