Indigo's home learning.

 

Rob

 The Environmental Teacher. 

First, the person who inspires me was my teacher last year but that’s not the reason why I chose him. I have other reasons too. 

First of all he was the one who looked after the enviro projects. Such as the floating duck house. 

Which was basically a disaster. But it was pretty fun designing and making the floating duck house. The only part that I didn't like was when we had to lift it up the hill without any help from the adults!

We also looked after ducks. we had duck monitors that feed the ducks, but every day our class would walk up the hill to feed the ducks then we would talk about what the next change should be

Secondly he is playful because when we interrupt him he says mate stop it and he has playful arguments with the boys about who won in soccer!

My third reason is he taught us about pest control and every couple of weeks we would go down to the wetlands to reset the traps that we put in places at the start of the year, and once when we went down to the wetlands we brought rotten eggs with us and when we got there rob threw the rotten eggs around the traps so that the pests get attracted and then they get trapped!

My fourth reason is that he lets us figure things out like the floating duck house and the hawk scarer that we made.

                          SPELLING BEE

A girl made a video about some guinea pigs called Whisper and Maddie doing a spelling competition. they had two big red button in front of them. When they had a food break and Whisper took the food off Maddie. Whisper got only one word wrong so Maddie won. Maddie got lots of grass for the prize.

Henderson Bay trip

 This morning Mum, Dad, Brielle, Arnya and I went to Henderson bay. We went up to the sand dunes and looked for kauri roots and gum. We didn’t find much kauri gum but we did find some kauri roots. We also had a swim. It was so much fun! The sand made a squeaky noise when you rubbed your feet on it. When we left we went and got fruit ice-cream. It was delicious!!
