Our Blog



We are a year 5/6 (9-10 year olds) class from Bairds Mainfreight Primary School in Auckland, NZ.

You can see some of our learning that took place in Room 12 in 2010 and 2011.

NB: I have moved to a new school now so this blog is no longer active. You are still welcome to comment and look at the great fun we had over the past two years.

Thank you for all the lovely comments :)

March 1st News



We were shocked to hear about the Earth-quake in Chile and the Tsunami scare. It reminded us of the Samoan Tsunami last year and, more recently, the cyclone that hit the Cook Islands.

Reflections:

Wiremu and Logan. Our voices were clear. We needed to manage ourselves better so that it made more sense.

Sarah and Julia. We wrote a good story. We need to speak louder.

Mele and Mereana. We think we need to speak louder. It was sad that there were people not listening propery in the background.

Siaga and Emma. Siaga had a good loud voice. We both need to look at the camera.

And more oral language




More Oral Language

Today we practised presenting to the webcam. We are going to use our footage to reflect upon:
  • what we are already good at
  • what we can do to get better
