Week 7

It is amazing how fast the term is flying by. It's hard to believe that we are in week seven of the term already! The children are really enjoying making and refining their cardboard games. They are giving each other feedback and making an improvement based on that feedback. 
We have also been working hard on how to work together to be a successful group. The children were surprised at how many groups that they belong to. 
In Maths this week we are looking at continuing and creating patterns. The children are using numbers and shapes to make the patterns.

Joining the chain gang

We have been practicing ways to spring while being in a group.

Week 6

Welcome to another busy week.  We are right into our design and construction Inquiry.  The students of Rawe are really excited to be working together to design and create their cardboard games.  We have based a lot of our design ideas on the work of ' Caine' - Caine's Arcade. There is a really interesting YouTube clip on this boy's cardboard arcade in America.  A great story that we were very inspired by.  Thank you to all of those lovely parents that have donated cardboard boxes. We have quite enough now to complete all of our creations.  With this crazy weather we are having at the moment some children are coming to school with a little less clothing than they need.  Can you please check that your child has a jersey/jacket, just in case the weather chops and changes. Have a great week :)


Here are some of our cardboard games under construction.
