Exploring word sounds for Spelling

This week we looked at words that have the "ch" sound but don't have the letters "c" and "h" in them. We created a Jamboard to record our thoughts. We spent about 15 minutes adding our words during one of Google Meet sessions. Students added new words as they though of them over the week. On Day 2, we revisted the Jamboard to check the list by "agreeing" or "disagreeing".  After this process, some students chose to remove their words, some chose to keep them and others added new words based on their new understandings.  Below is a screenshot of one of our Jamboard pages.  Ka pai Room 21 for your contribution and participation. I am very proud that you are comfortable to take risks by sharing your thoughts. I am also really proud that we could question each other in a respectful and value adding manner.  I love being part of your class!

Calendar Art

For our calendar art, we studied what makes a great photo. We looked at different techniques: fill the frame, rule of thirds, lines frame the shot, high angle, low angle and horizon lines. After planning our shot we took photos. Can you see the different photo techniques? Last day to order calendars: Friday 23rd September.
