Discovery 28-02-2014

Our first session of Discovery was held. There were some very excited students and it was hard to choose which activity you went to. The Competency Value was Relating to Others.
The ways we could show this value was to share and take turns, co-operate in pairs or in a group, include others, help and support other students, and to respect the space of others.
Here are some of the photos taken when we shared what we did in the classroom.

We had to sew our initials onto a piece of cloth.
It was hard because you had to be careful not to pull the stitches too tight.

We had to sew a pattern onto a piece of canvas.
It was exciting to use the bright colours.

Making a butterfly and decorating it with glitter was fun.

 

This sandpit crew took on the challenge of creating a monster castle.

In the making paper planes activity, the plane had to be tested
and changes needed to be made to improve the flight of it.
