What we're up to - Week 6 Room 5's Busy Bodies!

Our Topic: INDONESIA
We are making brochures using Pages on the Mac PODs all about Indonesia - photos to come!
I wonder if anyone from Indonesia has visited our Blog? Can you give us some information?

Garageband:
Garageband was really fun and we learned about different music tunes and sounds so it sounds really good. Mrs Hurley showed us on Fridays how to make some awesome Garageband songs.

Creative Writing:
Our Creative writing this term has been based around Keys. We all picked a key from Miss Hammersley and then we had to describe it and put it into a story. We had a huge amount of different keys to chose from. They were rusty, shiney, blue, pink, gold and silver. They were different shapes and sizes, they came in sets and some were the same as each other.
We are still working on these descriptive stories, we will add some soon for you to read.

Kite Flying:
We made kites and flew them last Friday at morning tea time. We made them for Matariki - Maori New Year. There are seven stars called The Seven Sisters. It was really fun and we saw lots of different kites - all different shapes and sizes. Lots of them flew really high. Some parents came as well to enjoy the fun.
The children who had the best kites, got to plant a tree in the garden where the pool used to be.
