Well done Communicators!

Great to hear from GRACE who wants to share her art, can't wait!

Thanks tree lovers, I have received several invites to be their tree friend!

I wonder who will be the next communicator?

I wonder if we can start a google doc with ideas for persuasive writing!

I will start it and share it with you! Check out your google docs!

Cross Country here we come

We are really going for it with the cross country at the moment.

Jack and Jack worked out that our practice course was 320m. We are using this to see how far we run in a day, week , month, etc.

Also the Savvy 7 maths group has a goal. To run to Wellington Train Station before the cross country. That is 15.1 km. Some are going for there and back. Way to GO!

Anzac

We are learning about ANZAC at school. Below are some links that I have found on other class blogs that I think will be useful.

What a great visit

Today we had the chance to find our a lot about skating!
It was amazing to see how talented the people were. It was fun to see Ruth on skates, she did really well. We were the best school at scoring in the goal.
Here are just a few pics, more to come.

The new look of Savvy 7's Blog

One term has passed and the blog has helped us celebrate our term and keep our parents informed of what we are doing. Look at the number of followers we now have.

It is time for some of us to take more of a management role. They will help contribute new ideas to our blog.

This is an invitation to those of you who would like to make a weekly contribution to the blog in a way that interests you. This may be a way of ticking off some home learning activities.

Would you like to be a weekly contributor who shares games that they find that others would enjoy? Are you wanting to start a comic strip and add a bit every week? Would you be great at sharing the weekly school news, just like a real reporter? There are many things that this blog really needs. What other ideas have you got?

Add a comment. Make sure you include your name, and idea.

Looking forward to the new look blog!

Easter is Here

Sorry but Mrs Campbell was away for the last 2 days of term due to a very sick family member but it is great to see that Mrs Graham and Mrs Brewer kept things ticking over nicely.

What are you up to for Easter? Leave a comment and share your activities with the rest of Savvy 7!

What an amazing presentation

On Friday we revealed our "pixel pics" We have worked hard on every pixel. Taana and Grace learnt many new skills in making the presentation and showed off our work beautifully. Here is just one example! Thanks to Mr B and Network Nine for the original idea! Let's show more next week.

Creative Home Learning

We really enjoyed sharing some of our creative home learning on Thursday and Friday. We have decided that displaying some of these in the cloak bay between Savvy 7 and Room 8 to help us all think of fun ways to learn.

What do you think is happening here? Leave a comment

Learning By Playing

We love the games that we find in many different places. This is one that was on Network 9's Blog. Have a go. Is there any savvy game player out there that would like to be the " game of the week" master?? Let me know!

Wonderful Tasting Home Learning

We saw the proof this morning. Look at this beautiful Lemon Meringue Pie that was devoured at morning tea time. Awesome work. I'm sure your skills will be in big demand at home.

An Invitation

We need you!
are you:
keen to come into Savvy 7 and help us
keen to see how clever we are in savvy 7 at www (working with words)
able to help us collect some important data accurately
able to commit an hour or so to help us
able to come on Wednesday or Thrusday of the last week of term at some stage of the day

We need some parents to help test us on our end of term www!

We not only get tested on spelling but also meaning. Some of us even have to suggest variations of the word. We will be tested on only 20 of our words from the term. We will need to spell the word, give a meaning and for some tell how else the word can be changed to fit into different sentence.

Savvy 7 will be using the results of this to see if we have achieved our goals and to help set next terms goals.

If you are able to help either leave a comment below or contact Mrs Campbell directly at stephcamp@gmail.com

We would love as many parents as possible to make the job quicker!
