My Architect Work: Teagan

This is my architect work.

We had Miss Corbett she gave us a maths task to do. Her sister is studying to be an architect. We had to use a meter ruler to measure the desks and tables and doors. We had to scale down 150 cm to 15 cm to make it fit into our page/plan of our classroom. Then we had to rule the desks, tables and doors out on another page. We then cut it out, glued it into position on our cardboard. We had to put the desks, tables and doors where they were in the classroom. This picture above is where we want the desks, tables and doors to be in our dream classroom. I had a lot of fun and want to do it again.

Our Reading Group: Teagan

This is our group reading. I am in the Dahl group second highest group. We are reading about how Hukanui became an enviroschool. An enviroschool is a school that has cultural gardens, plants and lots of trees. I enjoyed it very much.

Soccer: Teagan

This is our interclass soccer match. The ball just got thrown in and is in the air in the top left corner. I am the one chasing it in the bright yellow shoes. No one else is chasing that's weird because I thought they would be running to it like crazy animals. We ended up winning 1-0 thanks to a brilliant goal by my team mate Pah Nwee.
