Ten!

Week 10 for Room 20 was out of the ordinary.  We tackled a range of activities, learning how to make different things and then passing our learning on to others by holding our own workshops.  Check out what this looked like by exploring our DLO's (digital learning objects) below!

Lessons From Piper

We are always looking for ways to develop our

GROWTH MINDSET!  

To inspire us this week we watched the short film 'Piper' and discussed the lessons we could learn from this little bird.  Here is what we thought.

Nathan - 'Piper never gave up, even when he got soaked by the waves, he had another go.'

Violet - 'He didn't give up, he was hungry and really wanted to help the other birds.'

Maddison - 'He cared about the other birds.'

Sophia - 'He discovered something new when he tried out different strategies.'

Ahmed - 'He got used to the water.'

Amber - 'He persevered.'

Kyle - 'Piper buried himself in the sand, learning from the crab.'

Alyssia - 'You can do anything you want, you just need to try.'

Josephine - 'The crab shared ideas with Piper.'

Leo - 'Learnt to do something new by never giving up.'

Rebecca - 'He needed to solve the problem by himself.'

Tsukasa - 'He needed to get his own food.'

Pranvi - 'He started to enjoy the water.'

'His mum wanted him to solve the problem himself and become independent.

Growth Mindset Monsters

We have learning to have a growth mindset in our class.  We created Growth Mindset monsters to help us with the challenges we face in our learning.  Here are 2 of them!

What kind of class do we want to be?

The amazing creations of Sophia and Kahuroa!

How have you encouraged others today?

We thought about how we could show others we are a Growth Mindset class.  This group chose to make a movie to show that we can all encourage others to make good choices.

Ready for 2017

Room 20 is starting the year with a growth mindset.  We are working on challenging ourselves, being open to new ideas and learning, and not giving up.  We watched this short film 'SOAR' as inspiration for our creations to show others we are a Growth Mindset Class!

Look out for our creations...
