Last week Elgregoe the magician visited our school to preform his you've got the power show.  His show teaches key values that relate to our school values.  This year his show talked about cyber bullying which related nicely with our focus this term.  We all enjoyed his magic tricks.  Callum got to be one of his assistants.

Justin Blaikie visited our class on Thursday wearing his bee suit.  He came and shared his knowledge about bees with us. We learnt lots about bees from him.  Justin created a powerpoint presentation and showed us some you tube clips about how bees pollinate and how they make honey.  We also found out some of the threats to bees.

Room 9 had a very exciting morning at the Chrome book Unboxing Party.  We were so happy to finally receive our very own chrome books which we have been working hard to learn how to use.  We are getting really good at logging in and navigating our way around our Room 9 site.

Welcome to Room 9's blog for 2014!  We are a Year 4 class made up of 23 amazing learners.  This year we are beginning our learning journey on Chrome Books.  We are looking forward to un-boxing these on Wednesday 12th February at 10am.  In the meantime we are busy preparing for them and learning all about how to be safe online.

This year's theme is about Learning Together.

This term we are focusing on the School Mission Statement and the School Values.  We are also studying bees.  We have written some wondering questions we have about bees and written them up onto small hexagons and created a honeycomb feature.

We have also completed a jigsaw activity for art.  Everyone was given a small jigsaw piece to copy and make larger.  We then put all the pieces together to create a very interesting piece of artwork.  Do you know what it is?
