Kia ora Room 7 whanau and friends,
As the weather continues to get colder and colder and as we get into the real depths of winter, the students are spending more and more time inside, but Room 7 has a cunning plan to combat the winter blues! We are writing poems about winter and our favourite things about it! We are also keeping our feet moving and blood pumping through some amazing inside fitness with GoNoodle. Having practised GoNoodle with the children on a number occasions, I can personally vouch for the effectiveness of this tool in fitness I was puffed! Our amazingly fit tamariki have made huge gains in their fitness and are certainly showing me up with their dancing skills! I am sure that if you ask the tamariki about the 'Bones' or 'Disco Brain' dance they will be able to show you a couple of the moves!
Keeping in tune with this winter theme within Inquiry this week the students have been looking at different ways which they can save electricity and keep warm and snug during the colder months! The students have learned about the importance of curtains and insulation to keep warm! Our tamariki have made some great posters to share with the rest of Linwood North School about what they have learned. Thankfully, these amazing posters begin their journey in Room 7 and are currently brightening up our Inquiry wall.
Thank you to all of those caregivers and whanau who have booked a time for the learning conferences in the final week of Term 2. It is a great opportunity for the students to share their successes from Term 1 and 2 and to look forwards to the goals they want to achieve in Terms 3 and 4. If you would like a booking these are available online with a link and instructions having been posted on the Linwood North School Facebook page. Alternatively, you can pop into Room 7 and see me and I can book you in.
Have a safe and enjoyable weekend, I look forwards to seeing you all again next week!
Nga mihi,
Nick
