I've taken some time during Lockdown to follow some of my own passions and explorations. One of these was to learn how to use Apple Clips. This is a cool way to produce and share short videos and photos with others. I wonder how we could use it in class to share our learning and understanding of new concepts? Perhaps it could be used to upload learning evidence to Spotlight? I'm looking forward to seeing what the learners in Room 1 create.
Welcome to Room 1's blog for 2020. We are 'One Odd Bunch' - a curious and energetic Year 6 class. We (and Mrs Croll - our teacher) are looking forward to learning lots of exciting new things this year. Check our blog regularly to see what we have been up to - and make a comment. We would love to hear from you!

Kia Ora!
Welcome to sunny Monday! This morning video is a bit lengthy, but it has important information about expectations for learning and Google Meets. I encourage you to set up a timetable for learning, physical activity, and family time. This will help you to be organised and complete all the 'Must Dos' on time.
As always, please email me if you have a question or wish to share your learning.

Morena!
Day 2 of lockdown at Level 3. How was Day 1 for you? It was my daughter, Alice's birthday yesterday and we had planned to visit Commercial Bay in the city to celebrate, but we had to change our plans for dinner at home. It was much quieter than the usual birthday celebration with no grandparents, friends and my other daughter is stuck just over the Auckland border in Tuakau. She is staying with friends so that she can be closer to work and doesn't have to deal with a 'check at the border' every day.
It certainly has been a year for adapting to change. All the more reason to dip into moments of mindfulness and check the wellbeing of not only yourself but also family and friends. Take care.
