Because I only started blogging this term you probibly wont know about some of the things that room 24 have gotten up to so far, so in this post I will share with you some of the things that we have done in our learning and other things outside the class.
- Room 24 Went on an E.O.T.C challenge (ed outside the classroom) this was heaps of fun and we did loads of this including river crossing, river rafting, bridge haul, bush walk, making bivoaucs, and heaps more. This was a fun trip and i would love to do something like this again!
- early New Zealand trip. This was a one day trip were we went on a walk around Napier to find out about Napier and new Zealands history. After the walk we went and chilled out at ocean spa. Before this trip we studied heaps about early settlers to new Zealand and things like that.
- In our writing early on in the year we did report writing. i did my report on dancing.
- We made our own countries. for this we had to make up many things including, making a map, flag, where it is located, tourist Attractions, National anthem, our own Minny web page, and many more things. We made these countries based with the Olympics and we had to explain things in our countries so that then visitors/athletes know where they were coming for the Olympics!
- Debate writing, we did a little bit of debate writing in the middle of the year, then we were each giving a team and a debate subject to debate about. we had a few weeks to write our debates then we all presented them to another year 8 class, this was a little comp! our class ended up winning all of the debates except two of them we drew!
- We also had Mr Burns with us for some of the year. Mr burns was a student teacher becoming a teacher and has now done all of his exams! Everyone in room 24 had HEAPS of fun with Mr Burns, he even taught us for a week while Mr Doyle was in Japan on an exchange with about 12 Taradale int kids.
