Lucky Lunch

In the first week back this term, Rimu hub were put into learning buddy groups, and given a number of short Olympic activities to work on. This was designed to build some quick knowledge on the Olympics and the various different aspects of them.

The groups were given a time frame to meet, and some success criteria, making the tasks into a group challenge. The winners got to have lunch with the teachers!

The lucky team was Charlie, Bella, Karamea and Benji. Pizza was a highlight of the lunch, and lots was eaten by all of the kids.

Bella has been a fantastic leader that has made sure everyone is fully involved, contributing and enjoying themselves.

Charlie was a very good reader in the group who showed strong research and information finding skills.

Learning Muscle - Revising

Rimu Hub has had a closer look at their Revising learning muscle over the last two weeks. Rimu watched a video about a young boy called Austen and identified the importance of revision and editing.

Take a look:




We noticed that Austen made many drafts each time making improvements from the feedback which was very specific.
Rimu had their own go at revising some poorly written sentences about the Olympics. They corrected spelling, added punctuation and decorated their work to make some great improvements.
