Term 1 weeks

Over the last 4 weeks at school Room 20 has been learning a lot of new learning things . We have been learning how to make music with our body that means making music using our hands, feet, and  mouths.
We have also been having the youth town people come to our school to play sports with us . They come and play different  games with us every Tuesday. My favorite game is capture the flag you have to be good at running, dodging and working as a team.

 Room 20 has been listening to a story called the whale rider, and then we went and made a venn diagram about the story for those people who don't know what a venn diagram is about its when you draw two circles and then in one circle you would say what that character is about and then in the other circle you do the same thing but witha different character. You have to draw the circles over lapping because in the middle of it you have to write what is common to them both. I like this story because it is about New Zealanders. My favorite character is kahu te rangai .

One other thing that we have been learning is reading big numbers. My teacher said that you can read any big numbers and you actually can, even though they are big you can still read them . Example 2,455,346,36 this is 2 million 455 thousand 346 hundred and 36.
