Immersion Week

Team 3 here at Pt England School spent Week 1 changing classes each day from 12noon until lunchtime. Each teacher had organised and planned for each class to do an activity around our topic for the term "Mighty Mariners". Here are some photos from Room 10 and what they did with their teacher. Can you figure out what kind of mariners they are?

Mighty Mariners

This term our topic is called Mighty Mariners. Our focus question is: What does it take to explore the sea? Our learning outcomes are: to explain why people left their homes to explore the oceans and new lands, to explain one or two different technology used by early explorers and to explain and describe how a chosen group of people prepared for sea travel.

This is going to be an exciting term because we also have the Life Education bus with our friend Harold here for the next two weeks. We will also be practising for our school Cross Country competition. We've also got a trip to the Maritime Museum in Auckland and our school wide Pasifika at the end of the term.

If you can help us with any ideas or can answer the above questions and learning outcomes, please keep visiting us and don't forget to leave us a comment!!
