Tiritiri Matangi and more

Jun 4, 2019 | Mātātā - Year 5 blog

Hello Tuatara class,

Just a little update as to some of the things we have been learning about over the past few weeks.

We had a fantastic time with year 3 and 4 when we went to Tiritiri Matangi. The weather was perfect! The class really enjoyed finding out lots of interesting facts about the wildlife on Tiritiri Matangi, and were able to spot and identify many birds on the island. Below are just a few snaps from the day:

 

In the classroom we have been learning how to be good storytellers. we have been using our expressive voices, eye contact and hand gestures to keep our listeners engaged and entertained.

We have also been designing our own cars, using purple mash. These fabulous designs can be seen in 3D and as a net too. The children really enjoyed creating these!
