About Room 16

Room 16 is the main stream new entrant class at Kawakawa Primary. All the students are 5 years old and love coming to school and learning with Whaea Narelle, our kaiako. We are hands-on class that are learning to take responsibility for our learning and become our own teachers. We are discovering our learning skills through a process called learning through play. Have a look and see how we extend and challenge ourselves.

Least we forget

Room 16 has been learning about the importance of ANZAC day and what it means to us all. We have been writing some facts about it and are going to present them at our school remembrance ceremony. We also made some wreaths to show respect. 
Our wreaths are special because one is made out of "walking water". Walking water is an experiment we did to see how water moves through different materials. Our other wreath is our finger prints to make a special imprint on our art.

Salt crystals

Through our inquiry about the awa we have learned about erosion and how rocks play part with this. From rocks we then started to discuss crystals and decided as a class to make crystals. Whaea Narelle researched a way for this to happen and we followed her instructions. We had to carefully make shapes for our crystals to form on and this was more trickier than we thought!
Check out how amazing our crystals have formed!
