Week 2 In Room 10

Week 2 in Room 10 was another short week but certainly a busy one. Reading and Maths Tests were done, the Swimmimg Sports were held and letters were received from epals in Italy and Taiwan.
The class Korowai was completed too...its all about  who Room 10 are and becoming a class. There are some talented artists evident too.

This term the class will be writing to classes in Italy and Taiwan. so the focus in written language is on writing descriptions of a classmate so these can be shared with our epals.
Room 10 2015 also wrote to Mrs Weng's class in Taiwan, this week some letters came in for them  and some interesting pamphlets. The class learnt about the Year of the Monkey and currency converting - no a Big Mac in Taiwan doesn't cost NZ $45 it costs about  $2.02!

Our  eplas in Italy come from two different places - some live in the South East near Bari and the others in Mrs Macchiarulo's class live in the north near Milan.
