Inquiry - Movers & Shakers: Tectonic plate boundaries
Today we watched a YouTube clip and listened to a quick rap that helps us to understand and remember the 4 tectonic plate boundaries but with a focus on 3 of them: convergent/collide, divergent/divide, transform/slide. Our favourite part was replicating them using Oreos which of course we got to eat when we were done... and on the topic of Oreos, we also couldn't help but notice that they are getting considerably smaller!

Class of 2016 - Our Treaty
Whiria te Tangata
Weaving People
As part of preparing our treaty, we each designed a weaving strip. These strips here represent each unique and amazing person in Room 9. There are lots of things shown that are meaningful and enjoyable to each of us - culture, language, sports, music, and nature for example.
Each strip has been woven together to create a pretty cool piece of class art. Just as we can have a pretty cool year if we weave together our learning, and efforts to keep our treaty promises.
