We love to celebrate special achievements that happen outside of school. 2 children from Room 1 love to do motor cross and they came to school with some special trophies to show us.
Celebrating Special Achievements in Class
For the first time at Riverlands 2 students from Room 1 got a special acknowledgment from School Bo about their personal points. School Bo is a wonderful learning app on our I.Pads. It has numeracy, spelling and reading problems for students to solve. You can see other children from different schools playing the game too. School Bo sent our 2 students a special golden trophy to share and to celebrate their special achievements. Well done boys!!!
They got presented the trophy and special certificate in Junior Assembly.
Environmental Education
This term we have been exploring our school.
The focus of these activities is to establish connections with the environment and understand our connectedness to it.
It encourages us to consider the world that we are part of and how we can make decisions to improve the physical and social environment of our school, our community and our world.
Check out some of our activities!
Check out this special Environmental Science Project!
A student from Room 8 got special recognition and many awards for her Environmental Project at the Marlborough Science Fair.
Fun with Science
In Room 1 we have been exploring the 'Nature of Science'. We are making careful observations and having fun with Science. In this experiment we made colour travel and mix. We made our flowers change colour. We watched the changes each day.
Loving our Rich Maths Activities
Maths is changing for the better!
Each day we explore rich math tasks and problem solve. We can see patterns with numbers, use equipment to solve problems, talk about our thinking and then prove our answers.
Recently we have been learning about counting on/back from the highest number, using skip counting and equal sharing.
Check out some of these photos to show how we solved these problems.
