ECE Visit.

Today we went to the newly childhood center when we went there we had to take something to present to them our teacher gave us two choices that we had to do first choice was get a big book from the school library and the second choice was to choose a game for the little kids. Almost our class we went with choice one then we went to the library and pick a simple book to read to the little ones in the childhood center when we had chosen our big book we then walked down to the ECE center it took us 2 minutes to get there it was quick and I was happy to get there because it was pouring with rain. We were inside and Ria the manager introduced us to the little ones first we sang if you're happy and you know it then we had to pick a partner we picked one and got started first we read the book to him and there were different activities to do with our pairs we had a lot to do until we had to come down because the little kids had something to present to us after they have presented we say our goodbyes and went back to school.
      

TC Reflections

On 28th of April the year 8’s of Glenbrae School went to Tamaki College to roam to different classes we had to wait for the other school’s to come then Mrs Moore the Deputy Principal introduced herself to the us and introduced the mentors to us. Then Mrs Moore called out the names that we had in our name tags our mentor was Lavinia Fine Polo.

Our first class was Social Studies with Mrs Apelu we went on to a site called Socrative and we did the space race it was basically like Knowledge questions first round we nearly won by Magenta took over us and beat us. So we came second and round two was another race that we took but we lost again and came forth.

After Social Studies was ICT with Mrs Anderson we got there and did coding with her on her own site it was Fun because we had to play angry bird but had to use the codes to move them around and get to there destination. We did a lot of coding then it was to pack up and head to morning tea at the hall.

After morning tea was Maths with Mr Jones welcomed us into his class and after we played battleships first we learnt with him the coordinates and the Y and X then we played all of us managed to beat him so we did.

Then it was Lunch we had the chiefs from the Tamaki cooking classes then lunch was over and we also had two classes left one was science and the other was English. First we went to Science with Mr Stoddard first he gave use balloons to rub on our hair and put it near small bits of paper and watched how the balloon lifts up the paper. Then he told us to turn on the taps and rub the balloons on our hairs and put it near the water and watched how the balloons bended the water.

Then came the last session of the day was with Mrs Metcalfe it was English class in english we had to choose an important value that your school and that is important to you I choose Respect because it is important to me and my family. Then the bell rang for the end of the day. We then went back to the hall and Mrs Moore had to explain what was in our USB and then school by school were leaving for the end of the day.
