Maths Quiz

Did you know it is Maths Week?

This week in our Cybersmart lesson we made a maths quiz in Google Slides. 

We had to make sure we knew the correct answer. 

We linked the slides so that you know. when you got it right and could go to the next question. 

We also linked the slides so you know when you got it wrong and you could try again.

Are you a maths whizz?

St Mary's Mini Olympics

Today we had our school Mini Olympics. We started the day with an Opening Ceremony where we marched through the school waving our flags and holding our signs. Then we started competing in different tabloid events like chuck the chicken, flip cup, soccer, an obstacle course, hula hooping, target throwing, tug of war, bench ball, giant connect four and horse riding. We all had so much fun and enjoyed being Olympic athletes for the day!

Matariki Kites

We have been making Matariki kites. We learnt about warm and cool colours. We read a book called the Seven Kites of Matariki and then made our own kites. We used dye and blended the colours together so there weren't any hard lines. We then chose silhouettes that reflect the time of Matariki like a man and a woman harvesting and whānau spending time together.

Sticky Question

This week we are learning how to comment on blogs. We are going to answer this sticky question today to practise commenting.

We have to be positive, thoughtful and helpful.

We have to write it like a letter and we must remember to write our name at the end.

How would you answer this question? And remember to tell us why.

Blogging Competition Results
