17/11/10 What's Going On in BD Class?

Well it has been a really cool day today. Mr D got this email today.


Hi Barri,

Thanks for entering the INTERFACE Awards. I’m delighted to tell you that you are the runner up in the ‘Best Class Blog’ category. Congratulations! The standard of entries was extremely high this year and this was a very competitive section. Your entry was excellent. You’re doing some great work with the blog!

We will be making the official announcement on our website later today – and in the latest issue of the magazine (November), which is distributed today.

I will also make arrangements for your prize (a 500GB Toshiba Canvio portable hard drive) to be delivered. I’ll be in touch again soon.

Well done once again.

We are really proud of what we have achieved. We think it is pretty cool that a bunch of 6 year olds have done such awesome work. So well done everyone! The winning blog was from a class in Palmerston North. Well done to them! You can check out the interface website to find out about the winners.

 This morning we did some cool maths with Mrs Stewart. We were learning about area. Area is another way of saying "filling up the space." We used different shapes to try and fill up a piece of paper. It was interesting to see which shapes worked best.




We did some great reading today. The books we are reading are more challenging but we are learning to use different strategies to work out hard words.

We finished off our first narratives today and wrapped up the day with some PE. What a cool day.
