THURSDAY ONLINE LEARNING 09.12.

On behalf of Mrs Lologa and Mrs Young, we would like to thank everyone who participated in today’s online learning. Apologise at the end of our lesson we ran out of time during our kahoot but Polevia was our winner.

We started at 11am  and finished at 12.30pm. We had 11 children attend:

Break down of our whakatauki:

Feedback from assembly

Can we make any improvements. Very different from senior and middles. Put the childrens picture up on the big screen when they receive prize.

We couldn’t hear the sound. (Tina - Polevias mum)

(Chris mum -  )Face book live was much better than the zoom. Sound quality was good. Other people were saying it wasn’t good on the zoom. How did you find out about the Facebook live? Found out in the morning. Let parents know about videos being posted up  on face book.

Visualisation activity. - The invisible string

Discussion of something that touched your heart.

Sina: When you feel lonely at night you can look up at the sky and see the stars and talk to anyone as they can see the same stars that we see.

Polevia: Trees with a heart. No matter how far we are we are still connected to eachother.

Christopher - Clouds with rain coming down on the house.

Kayden - saw an octopus, love heart. I saw an octopus, teddy bear, bunny so I thought id draw them from the book. I wanted to draw the white string but i didnt have a white pen. Invisible means you can’t see it.

Indigo: When I was scared my mum said don’t be scared ill always be in your heart even when Im not there.

2nd zoom: Maths - houses, family of facts

Monday Online Learning

Hosted by Mrs Zhao and Ms Haynes - 6/12/21

Thank you for attending our online session today!

It sure was a fun session, I didn’t personally count how many were online today,  luckily Mrs Zhao took a screenshot of us all and as you can see we had a great turnout….

We started off with our Karakia Timatanga

We then moved onto our story for today….

We discussed what made the Grinch change his mind, what made him have a change of heart towards Christmas!

Then we took time to go over the questions and the students helped us circle the correct answers….

After answering the multi-choice questions, we moved onto our spelling activity for today - Christmas Trees! (Pyramid words)...

For Maths we introduced Division and spoke about equal sharing…

Together we worked one a problem and got the children to give us ideas on how to speed up the ‘working out time’....

This is what some of the students called out during the maths lesson…

Then we did a double facts maths challenge!

Today was a great session - I am super proud of you all!

Keep up the smart work you are doing at home x

Check out Polevia's beautiful Christmas word trees!

Friday Funday 

Online session 3/12/21

Hosted by Mrs Lologa, Mrs Mokalei & Ms Haynes

It was such a pleasure to be part of today's online session!

Wow, we sure have some talented artists at FBS……

We had 17 students online today!!

We started off with a whakatauki and discussed what it meant to us as teachers to the students…

We then moved onto shout outs to our Tamariki for completing and sharing their online work with us!

We then listened to a story and doodled while we listened to the words!

We shared our doodling and the teacher’s shared their drawings and talked through what we drew and why we drew it the way we did…

Maths: We worked on Splitting numbers to help us with multiplying double digit numbers.

After our maths talk….. We did a drawing session teaching us step by step how to draw a character!

Add pictures of our own attempts!

After our drawing time we played two games of kahoot!

Ending our Friday Funday session with a Karakia!

Wednesday Online Session 1/12/21

Hosted by Mrs Zhao, Ms Haynes & Ms Young

WOW…. Another great turnout today, I think we had 14 students online and 3 teachers.

I love this online engagement - keep up the amazing online work that you are all doing!

Today we started off with our Karakia and our FBS pepeha…. Thank you Ms Young for leading our FBS Pepeha.

We then sang and went over the actions for the Six 60 NZSL -My Pepeha song!

After the song we read a story called - Rat on the rug. We asked a number of students to read different parts of the story making it a team effort creating a shared story moment together...

Mrs Zhao went over the writing worksheet for today in segments based on the story we read.

Your writing task for today is to think of an interesting story ending - did the fat cat catch the slow grey rat? Or did the grey speedy rat escape?  Mmmmmmmm 

After our story, we played a maths warm up game online…

Then Mrs Zhao taught us about the Place Value House family - 3 siblings lived in the house little brother names ‘ONES’, middle brother named ‘TENS’ and big sister named ‘HUNDREDS’

We  spent time working on a few number problems using base 10 blocks….

When you have 9 (Ones) and you are given 1 more you make 10; this row of blocks connected together represent 1 row of 10 (Ten).

We learnt that to add faster we add the tens and then we count the ones.

We would like you to try and work out the last math page like the working out we did together (see picture below in green rectangle box).

We ended off with another Math quiz based on the place value system!

Check out how smart our Tamariki are!!!!

Ending our online session with our closing Karakia!

Monday Online Learning Session

29/11/21 Hosted by Mrs Zhao & Ms Haynes

Today was a great day for us online - we had so many students turn up to be part of our fun online session today!

We started off with a story about a little girl that liked to dream when she slept.

The story was called - Remember to dream Ebere

We then introduced our learning for today and went over the School Pepeha….

Well Done to Zapphire (Mum) and Jezrkaya who read out the FBS Pepeha for us!

After reading the FBS pepeha, we looked at rhyming words - the main idea was that words had the same ending sound!

We then had the opportunity to listen to Mrs Zhao read a poem. While Mrs Zhao read to us, we listened out for rhyming words….

Check out the photos of our rhyming word detectives that listened for rhyming words in the poem! 

We also had time to go over a multiplication word problem!

Check out how we solved question number 3…

We made tidy 10s and took away 7 as we discussed that it was easier to skip count in 10s than to add 9+9+9+9+9+9+9=

We then had time to sing along and learn NZ sign language to go with the six 60 - Pepeha song!

To end off our online learning we played a game of hangman!!

The word was Rhyming.

Way to go Polevia!

Wow what a turn out we had today!!

Group shot:

Today our reading focus was based on reading with expression, we looked at reading with expression by identifying speech marks in the text. We asked children to have a go at changing their voice to sound like different characters and to allow the story to come alive.

Questions and answers were discussed and shared amongst ourselves online today, as I typed the answers up.

1. How many dragons were there?

Four dragons

In the cave

3. How did they feel in the cave?

They felt lonely

4. List the places they went looking for friends.

• Skate park

• park 

5. How did the people at the park feel when they saw the dragons waiting by the bbq?

Scared, frightened, terrified, scary, worried

6. What did the dragons do to show that they are friendly dragons?

The dragons helped by sizzling the sausages on the bbq with their fire.

Spelling Activity:

We then took a look at our sound knowledge and looked at ‘Dr’ words, extending their learning to the idea that when you change the end suffix you will create more words! 

Adding: ing, ed & es as word endings.

Maths:

We looked at the place value system - identifying that the zeros are place holders in larger numbers. (10 x bigger)

Family Facts:

We looked at arrays:

Equal Sharing:

Today we learned about tonal modulation, this is when you choose one colour in this case blue and you mix different tones of blue to make it go dark blue to light blue.

Tonal modulation art will be used as the background for the Tuatara to symbolise that Tahi the Tuatara was blue- sad!  Thanks to Mrs Mayerhofler for this idea.

It was also good to learn the Maori days and months of the year, plus the question and answers in Te Reo - Ko te aha tenei ra?  Ko........ ........... o ............... rua mano, rua tekau ma tahi tenei ra.

Ko te aha tenei Marama? Ko............ tenei Marama.

Don't forget to practise our game!

We have revisited our Tautara story and have learned to write descriptively about a character.

We also learned to do a word pyramid for our spelling words.

 Then we did some Maths word problems. We have used counting on, doubling, skip counting, and multiplication to solve our problem. 

In the end, we played a little game. It was fun!

Thank you to Mr Avatea for shouting the whole school an ice block to finish the week off with.

Today I was taking the girls class through our ARTS day.  The girls worked really hard on their happiness whariki.  Then we learned how to draw Tahi the Tuatara with a pencil drawing first.  Once we were all confident on how to draw a Tuatara we moved on to drawing a Tuatara with pastel on black paper.  We talked about blending different colours together and how to use pastels to create different textures.

My favourite part of the day was dancing to different types of music to convey the different moods we felt from the music, motzart was part of the song lists!  These girls know how to have fun!  Great acting skills too!

Thank you Team Tupu girls for another awesome day Celebrating the ARTS in Room 8!

Our Happy Place Drawings- A work in progress

We will keep on working on this until every bit of white is filled with lines and pictures.

I wanted to know the boys a bit more so we sat side by side and doodled little drawings about our happy place.  While we worked we were able to talk and to ask questions about each other's drawings.  We also found a lot of commonalities within our own stories of our happy places!  Let's see where this whariki of happy places will look like for our face to face Team Tupu classes!

Tahi the Tuatara

First Drawing -  Drawing using step by step shapes, add in texture.  Next step layer it with colour!

Winner of our kahoot game.... I know it's a family affair our kahoot games!

We are getting better at finding our work in our drive and completing it.  Well done to the following children for sharing their work on google docs.

Angel's Work

Love how Angel just keeps on going... that's the one!  Today Angel has learned to colour in the whole grid rather than the part of a whole.  This is good learning.  I will go over this at our google meet tomorrow.

Jeremiah's Work

Polevia's Work

Today Polevia has picked up his hardpack and has made a good start on his booklet!  Thank you to Ms Heather for organising this wonderful work for our children.  Polevia has started on colouring in his Tuatara for a Christmas competition.  Good work!

Thank you parents for making sure your children hand in their work to be marked.  I will go over how to do this in our google meets. 

Thank you to Ms Melino for teaching us over the past 2 weeks.  Today is Ms Melino's last day with Room 8.  

Ms Melino's Work

Ms Melino is a student teacher in Room 8.  She had to teach 3 lessons in a row to a small group- Tito and his brother Christopher.  She had to come up with a google slide for her lesson, a jam board to teach her lesson and a follow up worksheet for the children to complete.  Thank you for your fantastic work!

Ms Melino's full control group

This was Ms Melino's last online lesson for her full control in Room 8.  She has taught in our regular 12pm Google meet, but we felt she may get a better feel for real online teaching if she taught a smaller group.

It worked out really well!  She learned lots and the boys also got to learn more in a one on one setting.  Thank you for your work boys and Ms Melino!

Jeremiah's Work

Children have been writing a persuasive letter to the USA to give Olohega back.  We have decided to use the SEEL paragraph to write our ideas sentence by sentence in order to build a paragraph.

Olohega Writing- Persuasive PEEL paragraph

Children are writing a letter to the USA to persuade them to give back Olohega to Tokelau!

Angel and Joslin's Learning

I will go over this work at our google meeting girls.  Thank you for trying your best.  Thank you Vitolia for sending me the video of where the girls are stuck at.  It's OK we've got this!  We can do it together at our google meet.  All of these worksheets I go over at our google meet.  I show the children how to insert the grids and colour in the fraction with the paint bucket.

Wow... I am blown away with the amount of work you guys are sharing with me via gmail, photos of the class page work and just lots of emails asking for help to further clarify the work.  Well done Room 8.  Keep up the good work and keep on sending in your work to me!

Thank you so much fanau for rowing our learning waka together!

Thursday 28 October

Thank you to all of the parents who have helped their children to send in their school work from the class page, plus the extra work in their google drive.

This part of the learning process is really important, as I want to mark and comment on your learning as it informs me my next teaching and learning steps.

12pm Google Meet photo for today!

Angel's Work

Angel is learning how to operate the paint bucket.  She is also becoming more aware of the whole.

Tito's Work

Tito and Christopher have been turning up to Ms Melino's 10pm Full Control Google Meet Lessons

Christopher's mic and screen doesn't work on his school Chromebook, so they use their mum's phone for the google meet, so they can see us and use the Chromebook to do their work on.  These kids are amazing .... they just make it happen in order to learn.

Jeremiah's Work

Jeremiah completed work from our class page.

Polevia's Learning

At the start of every google meet, Room 8 write for 5 min and share our writing with our class before we start our lesson.

Room 8 is learning to write a SEEL persuasive paragraph.  We are trying to persuade the USA to give Olohega back to Tokelau.  The children write one sentence at a time together as a class on google meet, to model how to complete the task.  Then they are given the follow up worksheet to complete in their own time.
