Fun times with Matua Zion

Today Room 5 had an awesome game of Ki o Rahi with Matua Zion. They learned about playing fair, encouraging each other and playing as a team.

Taonga Tākaro

Yesterday Matua Wiremu and his helpers Whaea Ange & Whaea Amy came to teach us Taonga Tākaro. They were awesome traditional Maori games using natural materials such as taiaha, rope, and rakau.  

Here are some photos of some of us enjoying the games we played. 

Following instructions

This week our focus has been on Listening to and following instructions. Sometimes it's been a challenge, but we've been preserving. Here are some of the activities we've done this week.

Team work

Today Matua Paulo came and taught our class games that relied on Teamwork. There was noughts and crosses using hoops and bean bags.  Then there was a passing game where you had to pass the ball to your team mates but not the person on either side of you. It wasn't as easy as you think it would be, especially when Matua started adding more balls. .1
