Poetry Slam

In Room's 7 and 8 we LOVE poetry!!

Congratulation to the children who were selected to read their poems to the class form last week. Here is a photo of the winners with their certificates.

For the next few weeks Poetry Slam will be different. The children have been given a booklet of poems. They need to pick one of these to learn for the upcoming poetry competition - later this term. We ask that they select their poem before Friday and then are ready to share their poem with their group on Tuesday at our next poetry slam session.

Poetry Slam - Week 5

Here are the children who presented their poems to the classes for poetry slam this week. Well done everyone!!

Room 7 Using Google Docs

Over the past week Room 7 have been learning how to access the awesome power of Google Docs. Everyone is so excited. Today was a real break through as many of the children were able to figure out how to use e-mail and were sending e-mails to each other and Mr Powell. Lots of the children are also creating their own Google Slides in their Google Drives.

Poetry Slam - Week 2

This term Rooms 7 and 8 have started a poetry session called 'poetry slam'. Each week the children are given a poem to learn, which they present to their small group at our poetry slam session. The children in the group vote whose poem was the best and then these children present theirs to the syndicate. This is great practice for the poetry competition that is coming up later in the term.

These children were voted the best from our very first poetry slam session and earned the first certificates. Well done to everyone and we can't wait for the next poetry slam this Tuesday!!
