iTeach Workshops

In the last week of term we ran our first iTeach workshops.  This is when we can choose anything we are interested in or want to teach our classmates and Miss Signal.  Next term we will also be teaching Room 11, then hopefully our pod... next it will be the World!!

In these workshops we could learn to play the card game 'Speed, the card game 'Werewolf', find out how to make a game using Scratch, learn some google and Chrome tips and tricks or attend a Reader's Workshop and learn about book reviews.  It was a great session and we are looking forward to more iTeach in Term 2!

Monster Mash!

We created some monsters to start our creative minds for our writing!  Miss Signal gave us a ball of playdoh each and then had some crafty bits on a table we could use.  Things like wobbly eyes, pipe cleaners and stars!  Check out our creative monsters in the video below.
