Epro 8 Challenge


Room 11 got to do the Epro 8 Challenge this week. Their challenge was to make something that 
could be lifted. To make a crane was difficult, we had not heard of or seen this Epro 8 before. We tried our best with the little information Ms Tumahai gave us and it was a Challenge. We split into groups of 4 and carried this heavy case to space where we could start the challenge. We did well to communicate with each other but we were still confused. Ms Tumahai gave us a few suggestions which were helpful, and we were soon tying, tightening, pushing, pulling and winding things. None of our creations could lift anything but it was fun.

Room 11 MoTaT Trip

What an awesome way to end a busy term. Room 11 went to MoTaT to learn more about 
coding. We got to code robots. We got to watch them race and crash, it was a lot of fun.
After coding robots, we got to explore MoTaT. We went to the old village church and Moi Moi said the karakia and we all joined in with him. We rode on the tram it was such a fun day.

Cyber Smart in Room 11


We have been busy over the last couple of terms trying our best to be cyber smart on our Chromebooks.
I have certainly learned much more about doing things quickly and more innovative. The key here is for the students and me to try to work on incorporating this learning into our weekly planning.
