How clean is the Manawatu River?

Thanks to Mrs Simmons we were able to get agar plates to test bacteria in the Manawatu River. We compared this with tap & bottled water.

Just for fun we tested our fingers and coughs for bacteria.

YUK! We were disgusted with how filthy our fingers & the Manawatu River were!!!

Wacky Hair Day

We had a great time wearing Wacky Hair on Wednesday.
Our school raised money for the Westpac Helicopter.
What a great cause.

E students at Roslyn

Today at Roslyn school I Clay-teneil have taken small 5 second videos of things that need work or things that have had work done on them or people working and put the videos together on Imovie. I would love some feedback.

Areomania- Poem Presentation

These guys enjoyed using body language to interpret this poem.

Queen's Birthday?

I wonder why Queen's birthday isn't the queen's actual birthday?

Our ideas...

• Connor thinks "may she was born at night time?"
• Clay thinks "maybe because of the time difference?"
• Chloe thinks "maybe so it will always be in the weekend so we don't have to miss out if we are too busy?"
• Corey thinks " maybe because the queen wants us to have a day off?"
• Millie thinks "maybe because it is the birthday of her relative?"
• Donald thinks "maybe because people have a mini birthday?"
• Nick thinks "maybe she is having a party?"
• Peita thinks "maybe she makes up her dates so she can escape for a while?"
• Karla thinks "perhaps different days because she is in England?"
• Madison thinks "maybe because everyone is in a different place?"

I wonder what happens if we had a King instead of a Queen?

Explanation- Bike

Have a listen to Evie's explanation about bikes.

Bianca's kitten explanation

We have been learning how to write an explanation.

We need to:

• Start with an introduction
• Include a definition or brief description
• Use paragraphs to sort ideas
• End with a conclusion to summarises
• Use topic specific words (technical words)
• Explain- e.g. Parts, how it works, when it’s used
• Use 2nd or 3rd person
• Join ideas with conjunctions
• Order your ideas logically
• Use present tense
• Use sub headings

Don't Tease

Here these guys are interpreting poetry using dance, drama & expression.

There's a wonton on my pompom

This poem is a catchy favourite for these boys. We've been working on reading with expression and using dance and drama to present poetry.
