Room One students have been skipping every day to help build our fitness for the school cross country. Our goal as a class is to enjoy running.
We have been graphing our skips in our math book. Most students are seeing a progression over the term. We have discovered that there are variables that influence our results including having the right sized skipping rope and wearing covered shoes.
We love skipping in Room One so much that we even choose to skip during our morning tea and lunch times.
On Monday Room One visited the Tonui Collab to learn more about computational thinking.
Jules welcomed us as we arrived, she was our facilitator. We worked through a number of hands on activities that required us to give and follow instructions. We had to direct our friends through a maze of hoops and write codes for lego people to navigate through a maze of cyclopes to get gems.
After morning tea we got to play with Sphero robots. Initially students had to get their drivers licence before they were set with small challenges.
We had Helena and Tracey joins us. Thanks for helping us ladies. We had such a fantastic time!!
