Room 3

--------------Welcome------------- Hello i am Balaaj and today I will talk about our last tennis session in Room 3. Today we did volleys, we hit the ball to our partner and they hit it back to us without the ball bouncing. Here is a photo

So as you would probably know about the ningbo coming over to see what it is like at New Zealand.

In term 2 week 5 we had our third lesson on solar power with the ningbo primary school in this lesson we were recreating our boxes from the design that we drew with our groups. when we finally had all the materials we started to try and remake our design with a cardboard box here are some examples.                                          these groups were all working very hard to complete their design and they were determined to finally create their designs and have been working very hard to finalise the box 

Room 3 has been writing about solar power on google slides with our group that we did the solar power project with.

Folk Dancing This term, students have the wonderful opportunity to get involved in folk dancing every Friday! Folk dancing is a great way for the students to come together and enjoy music and dance. Typically, folk dancing reflects the life of people from a certain country or culture.  The year 5 and 6 students had their first session at it last week. Here are some photos and videos from the day! 

So on week 4 Monday, room 3 went around the school measuring simple machines around target road school. If you do not know these simple machines that we were discovering as well as taking photos i will tell you right now: Inclined plane and a example of that is a ramp,Next is the screw now pretty much every where has a screw, i mean come on you will have had to have seen a screw in your life man (or woman).Wedge a example of that is a crowbar.Pulley, a example of that is a crane Next up is the lever and the example of that is a door handle and last but not least is the.... WHEEL & AXLE! The final example is a car. So what we did was Miss Clampitt (our teacher) put us into group and in our groups we went around taking photos and writing down in our books what we were taking pictures of. Here are some photos that our teacher took: ENJOY :)

Hi, I am Balaaj and today i will be talking about Tennis Session 2. In session 2, we learnt the backhand. The backhand is when you hold your racket like this: and then hit the ball. We also learnt how to serve, we throw the ball up into the air and then we hit it. If you were confused, look at this photo. Here are some photos of Room 3 enjoying tennis! bye

Term 2 week 4 room 3 has started tennis as a class exercise. Tennis is very helpful for us because a lot of us did not know how to actually do anything in tennis but now we sort of have an idea on tennis. here are a few photos of our first session.                                           Hopefully we can have more sessions playing tennis

Cerebrum is located at the front of your head and it is responsible for integration of complex sensory and neural functions.Under the Cerebrum is the brain stem witch helps tell the body is the heart needs to beats faster also it helps to swallow food also helps to breathe.Next is the Cerebellum witch is located at the back of the head and controls voluntary movement in our body also sends messages in the spinal cord.So we were split into groups and each of us had one part of the brain, we were given about 5 minutes to read the descriptions then Miss Clampitt would choose rando...

On Thursday 3rd of may room 3 did a math measuring project. So what we had to do was write in our math book what we are measuring then take a guess how long it was or what the width was for what we were measuring. Then we would go and measure the correct length and then write the answer in our book. Most of us would be exited when we got the guess right.....                        Here are some photos of what we ended up with
