Olive's Poem on her gifts of being a friend.

Olive wrote a lyrical poem about what she has to offer as a friend. She even wrote a solution to the issue of trading special things in the classroom. 

What can you offer as a friend?

Do you know your worth?

Today Stella wrote a poem about what she has to offer someone...have a read and now, that if Stella is your friend, she offers many gifts that come from the heart.

Problem Solving in Room 10

Today we tried to solve one of the world's biggest problems!

Do you know what it is?

"WHY DO PEOPLE STRUGGLE TO DO THE RIGHT THING?"

Something was up in Room 10. Some people were happy, some people were sad and some people had no idea what was going on...but Andrea knew, but she didn't tell us. She said we were going to have to figure it out and she would give us some inferring hints if needed. We were going to be detectives into human behaviour! 

We got into triads and talked with each other about the question. All of our answers are on the padlet. 

We eventually got to the problem in the world and especially Room 10. 

People were trading things in class in order for people to like them. 

Andrea said she could just make a rule - NO TRADING - which she kind of did, but that we also need to know OUR WORTH first. Our worth does not come from people wanting our stuff... our worth comes from what's inside each of us.  We have ore to offer each other and it cannot be found in any shop! 

Now we are all writing stories about...What can I offer? 

Torin said he can offer friendship and Ava said she can include people at morning tea and lunch. Amelia said she has kindness to offer. 

What do you have to offer? (P.S. It's not a smiggle rubber...)

Write what you have to offer in the comments below and together we can make the world (and Grey Lynn School) a better and happier place.

Poppy's Matariki Padlet

We learnt how to create a padlet yesterday and Poppy was so inspired that she rushed home to create one of her own to support her inquiry into Matariki.
