Homework
It has been an amazing and wonderful term and we have had a lot of highlights. Homework has been spotlighted here on the blog and in class throughout the term - Ben and Ethan's results in the Movie competition are testament to the creative nature of our homework programme. You still have the holidays to collect together all of your homework into your scrapbook and we will present certificates early in Term 4. If you have lost your sheet all you have to do is to follow the link at the side of the blog and download it from the Google Doc.

Emily's email to us
Dear Mr Dyer and Room 6
I have: seen whales jumping from our house on the beach; been kite surfing riding on Dad's back; came over to an island and had a mocktail; and got sunburnt yesterday.
I have taken photos of Puddles but I can't send them from here.
Hannah and I have been invited to the island school athletics day tomorrow.

Tek Rush 2012 ICT Kid Conference
Today I had the privilege of attending a conference in Cromwell. I have attended a lot of conferences as a learner, choosing workshops, listening to Key note speakers and taking what I have learned back to my class to take further with my students.
Today's difference was that I was presenting and it was not a conference for teachers, but a conference for selected Year 5 and 7 students.
These students had to apply for the opportunity to attend Tek Rush. The reason for it being Year 5 and 7 was because they will have the chance to give back next year to the school. I had the tricky job of choosing the lucky 7 from Hawea Flat and all have promised to share what they have learned with their families, classes and the whole school.
This blog is for Room 6 to share our learning and experiences. Today all the Hawea students that went to Tek Rush were ex-room 6 members and of the 12 Year 7 students from MAC four, once upon the time, were Room 6 students too, although it was quite a long time ago.
So thank you students of Tek Rush for the opportunity to be part of today and I look forward to seeing how you give back what you have learned.

Using an excerpt from the Power of One to describe a new experience
Rabbit shooting
It was terrifying shooting the bunny, because there were about seven of them, and I thought that I might have missed. Dad was next to me and kept silent. He did not want to scare the rabbits or distract me.
I slowly pulled the trigger and fired, all the rabbits ran away except for mine, which fell down dead.

Some great collaborative brainstorming
This chart was created by the class yesterday between morning tea and lunchtime. It was on the Interactive White Board (IWB)and as they though of something to add they added it. The conversations at the IWB were fascinating to watch, the whole class was focused on how they could add to the chart and if we had more space the collaboration would have continued. Then Abby and Emma recorded what they had added on the Wordle below.
Please excuse the spelling errors, but that was not the purpose of our lesson.
