Room 10

Room 10 has been writing books for the NICU ward at Waikato hospital. These books were inspired by Miss Chalklen's friends late son Demetri.      

This term in PC Sport we have been doing hockey. We have 4 amazing coaches named Ben, Blake, Sam and Kayla.  This week we had Miss Chalklen's little sister show up. Emma was apart of the reps hockey team from year 7 to year 11. She taught us some good skills. She has taught us how to stop drop, which is when you get down low and stop the ball. She taught us some excellent dribbling and passing skills. Emma also tolled us how to play a game properly and the main skills and attitude you need to be in a hockey team. Thank you so much Emma for taking your time out of your day to come and teach room 10 some amazing skills. By Bailee and Ash-lee = Bash-lee

TOTEM POLES  Room 10 made Totem poles in Term 1. To make these we had to learn lots of measurement skills, such as area and perimeter.  Our art was to design a panel that showed others who we were. For writing we wrote, produced, filmed and edited a documentary called Grand Designs.  by BASHLEE, NED 

Last term we sat our writing E-asTTle test. Our topic was persuading people that music was more important than sport. One of our Year 8 boys has improved dramatically in his writing in the past 2 terms. We are really proud of him and all of his success. By Bailee Steiner and the rest of the blogging crew in Room 10
