Update from Miss Chan.

Hi Mrs Gurney and Room 6,

I hope you don't mind I dropped by to give you an update.
I'm busy as usual completing assignments and I go on practical again in another two weeks to a different school. I haven't found out what school just yet, but it can't be as good as Roslyn School :P.

Miss Chan.

Room 6 and Room 20 swimming at the Freyberg Pools.

Wicked Week 3!

Another week GONE before our eyes! We have had a blast on the computers this week. Che, Rakshay, Caleb, Shaelin and Jahron did a stunning job creating a Power Point presentation about our Super Star Core Culture value of Self Control. They presented this in team assembly on Tuesday morning as education and motivation for the week's focus. If we can teach ourselves how, we will link their presentation to this page so you too can view it!
Miss Chan has carried on teaching small groups of learners how to graph on 'Excel'. There are some great graphs glued into maths books. We discovered through the graphing, that we eat very healthly at 'Snacktivate', with fresh fruit being the most popular choice to munch on.
Swimming started on Wednesday. It's been fun getting out and down to Freyberg Pool. A logistical challenge teaching some 60 students with varying swimming ability - but a challenge we have succeed at so far. Watch out for the stunning kids who are aiming for the awesome What Now swimming challenge bands. We'll keep you posted!

Coming to this page tomorrow - blogs created by Room 6 students! Enjoy meeting The Six Mix!

Hello everybody,



My name is Miss Chan and I am currently studying at the College of Education doing a one year graduate course in Primary Teaching. I have been working with Mrs. Gurney in Room 6 at Roslyn School since Thursday last week and have really enjoyed the experience!



I have done so much over the past week and a half, I have been taking small groups to work with on Excel, I helped Caleb, Che, Shaelin, Jahron and Rakshay create a Powerpoint presentation about 'Self-control' and I also went along with Room 6 and Room 20 to the Freyberg Swimming Pools to help assess their swimming skills and to help them learn new skills.



Unfortunately, today is my last day here at Roslyn School, but 'I'll be back' (as Arnold Schwarzenegger (the terminator) would say).



I look forward to seeing you all again in May :)



Miss Chan.

WELCOME MISS CHAN

This week, The Six Mix welcomes Miss Chan to our class. Miss Chan is a Graduate Student at the College of Education, and is on her first teaching posting with us until next Friday. Some of us have been lucky to work with Miss Chan on the computers, graphing class data using 'Xcel'. Next week, other groups of students will get to work with Miss Chan making Power Point presentations about our Team Core Culture.
WELCOME MISS CHAN. We look forward to some awesome work with you next week.
