Here are some reflections from room 7 from last Friday's Maori Game Rotation.

Rohullah's Story

Rohullah wrote this story with Mrs Anderson. He very kindly shared it with me so you could read it too. Thashakur Rohullah.

Congratulations to the lunchtime gradings for today. Well done Tiare, Tim and Jasmine. Tiare graded for her white belt and her yellow belt. Keep up the good work.

Room 5: Recorder Karate

We had some more gradings today to white belt. Remember that you can grade before school after the first bell like Juanita and Saruja did.

Rooms 5 & 6: Soundscapes

Rooms 5 & 6 have been using a song called "Kiwi" as motivation for creating music. They created a rhythmic ostinato in groups using body percussion and they played rhythmic ostinatos on percussion instruments to accompany the melody.

Rooms 3 and 4 have been learning to play melodic ostinatos to go with a story called "The Bird and the Elephant". They are also learning about high and low.

Stomp Elective

We had a great time at Stomp today. We were motivated by a STOMP piece called "Newspapers" and used the ideas to create music using boxes. We also began working on "Basketballs".
