Fortball

Today we learnt a new game, which is based on the new craze, Fortnite. The game is a mixture of Capture the flag and Rob the nest.

Comment on what you thought about the game, and what we could adjust or improve for next time??

Check out the video to see the action...

Today we were lucky enough to go to both Room 7 and Room 9's career expo. There were some great sharing of learning, presentations and it was pleasing to see the effort and time, many students put it their work.

Students investigated a chosen career they were interested in, or was an option given during their career quest or strengths quiz. Skills and qualities needed for the job were presented as well as information about what they did in the job, hours work, likelihood of getting the job, training and of course the pay.
Check out some photos from our expo, where the other syndicates class came to share in our learning and gain more knowledge about other job choices...

Hand dance moving

Students have begun to share their hand dances that are now moving.
They had to try and include jumps, reaches, different levels and body parts, turns or spins, all whilst moving in rhythm.
Check out some of their excellent efforts...

Today our class participated in the knock out tournament at lunch time. We got better as the games went on, but unfortunately were knocked out. Room 10 had a focus to work on passing and space, some progress was made on this, we need to keep working on this!! Height also was challenged as some opposition players towered over us. Great effort Room 10, good luck for the loser round.
