Collaboration Group Activity

Today we did a group activity to show collaboration. The activity was that we were put in groups and had been given a sheet of paper, scissors and glue. We had to make a paper plane. We only had 20 minutes to do it. We worked together in a group. Every group had made a plane. But witch plane could fly the farthest? One person from each group held the plane that their group had made and threw it to make it fly. My group had made the original paper plane. Every other group made their plane differently. We thought because are plane was not cool like the others are plane will come last. But to are suprise it came 2nd!

Term 2 reflection

Term 2 has been a very busy term with lots of exciting things happening. We have done a lot of maths, writing and reading. We started to do fale houses at the start of the term. Fale means house. There were 4 houses, Rata (red), Kauri (blue), Kowai (yellow) and Totara (green). Those houses are native trees. I am in Kowhai.  Everybody has been put in a fale. In the corridor there are tall boxes of each colour that has a hole at the top. You can earn tokens if you have good behaviour or hard work. When you get earn a token you go to the corridor and put the token in your fale. From the top where the hole is.  Every Thursday the token counters count all the tokens in each fale and put the numbers up by the corridor where the boxes are. ( I am a token counter ) The fale that has the most tokens gets to keep a block of just fun. We've got fale leaders witch help to set things up. The fale leaders have to be a year 6. Everybody has been trying to earn tokens to help their fale win. Today is the last day of term 2. Today there is a pyjama and shared lunch, which I am looking forward to.
