What makes an excellent learning environment?

As a class we discussed the question: What makes an excellent learning environment? We came up with lots of ideas from looking after our environment to leaders, from working to our potential to focusing on our learning. This picture is all the words that we came up with.

Family

This week we have been writing acrostic poems about ourselves and family.  Here are a few of them for you to read.


Frank is my father's name
All Blacks are my favourite rugby team
My Mum's name is Junhui
Ice creams are my favourite
Lollipops are a snack for us
Yellow is a primary colour we like

By Justin

Fun and awesome
Always there for each other
Mum and Dad are awesome
I love my mum
Love them very much
Yasmin is my sister's name

By Zaina

Fun time with my family
Away in the sun
My mum goes shopping with me
I like my family
Like my funny dad
Yay! I love all my family

By Dorothy

Family is the only one who loves you
At home they give you homework
Mirhan is my brother, he is in LZ10
If you do not have a family, it's bad
Life is fun with your family
You all love your family

Dear Miss Thomas

My name is Sakada I am 8 ½ years old. My birthday is on the 11th of May.

After school at 5 o'clock, my dad and I go to karate on Wednesday and Monday but on Saturday I go at 10 o'clock. Some times my dad and I ride the bikes.

I have one sister and no brothers. I don't now how to spell her name yet but soon I will. She is about one and a half weeks old and I like her so much.

I am very lucky because my mum and dad buy me a lot of teddy bears. At the moment I have like about ten or more I did not count them.

Dear LZ13,

My name is Kush and I have a dog named Joe. I love vegetables especially broccoli. I love fruits. My favorite fruit is mango. Chicken wings are my favorite food.

I wake up at 4 o'clock mostly. In the morning I'll brush my teeth, have breakfast, have a shower get dressed, then go to school.

Day One

Learning Zone 13
We had lots of fun on our first day. We learnt heaps about our classmates. Miss Thomas taught us the Name game. When we first played it, it took us over 40 seconds to get into alphabetical order. By the end of the session we could get into order in 5 seconds. At the end of the day we challenged ourselves again and we bet it by 2 seconds.  We were so excited with our effort.
