Today we had a visit from the Tread Lightly Caravan to make us aware how some of our everyday life style choices have environmental consequences which are not sustainable.
By doing some fun activities we learned how we can make some small changes in our daily lives that will reduce the impact that our activities can have on the environment.
Room 1 are all inspired to live more environmentally responsible lifestyles and are eager to share their new learning with their families/whanau at home!
Welcome to Room 1's blog for 2016. We are a class of energetic year 4/5 learners and our teacher is Mrs Poole.

Slide Shows
Matthew, Mark and Aya were chosen to attend a workshop with Judi Billcliff. When they came back to class they taught us about Slide Shows.
A Slide Show is when a group is given or thinks up a topic and the audience is asked to close their eyes while the group creates a freeze frame of the topic. A member of the group asks the audience to open eyes. The audience views the slide then is asked to close their eyes once again. The group repeats another 5 or 6 slides. Matthew, Mark and Aya performed their 'plane crash' slide show to the class.

Poetry
Today we had a visit from the amazing and very talented Judi Billcliff from Rainbow Poetry.
Judi is a poet and has published three books. She performed some of her hilarious poems during her visit. She had some people to help her perform, Mr Mac made an awesome Granny!
Thanks Judi for the laughs and the inspiration to write poems.
