Yaaaay IPADS

Yesterday, all the teachers at Carisbrook School were given an IPad to take home and learn how they can use them in the classroom.Today, Ruma Kiwi were allowed to explore it together. We listened to stories during brainfood and we also did some maths and spelling. We are looking forward to using the IPad in Ruma Kiwi

Inquiry learning



 


We have been learning about what makes our community unique? We started off by learnig what makes us unique.. Unique means that you are one of a kind! We then learnt about our school community, the dunedin community and now we are looking at what makes New Zealand unique. We have had a great time exploring different areas of learning - Art, reading, writing, maths, drama, song and dance. We look forward to next terms topic....

Our class pet MINI-MURTLE


In Ruma Kiwi this term we have a class pet. Her name is Mini-Murtle. She loves to run around in the classroom and tries to swim through the glass of her tank. She has sharp claws and loves to eat crackers and fish food. We have to wash our hands every time after we hold her. Come and visit her whenever you like :)
