Team Takahe's Terrific Fitness!

On Mondays, Tuesday and Thursday the whole of Team Takahe get together for fitness. We do 'Jump Jam' on the back court. (Mrs Aberhart got so excited about it that we bought a new sound-system for our team to use so we can hear the music properly!) Miss Hygate even tries to join in with us and she needs to improve her fitness so that she doesn't end up so red in the face!!!

Matthew's Maths Magic!

Check out what Matthew chose to do in maths time this week.....

Finn and Regan's "Taking Action" for SUSTAINABILITY

For the 'taking action' phase of our PAI inquiry about SUSTAINABILITY Room 25 had a go at producing energy using a SUSTAINABLE practice such as wind or water power.

Here is Regan and Finn's creation that uses manpower to generate enough electricity to light up a small light bulb.

Carrying out a statistical investigation about drink bottles....

In maths Room 25 has been learning all about stem and leaf graphs in statistics. We found an activity in one of the 'Figure it Out' books that uses stem and leaf graphs to  record data from an investigation about how much liquid people's drink bottles hold so we're giving it a go...

Once we have measured how much people's drink bottles hold we are going to create stem and leaf graphs to record our data.
