We have had fun this week, working on sending an inspirational message of support to our heroes, the All Blacks. Marilena and Kayden used Garage Band to record the audio on this slideshow, and Mr Jones made them laugh by showing them how they could make their voices sound like the chipmunks! Here we are honing our passing skills with Mrs O'Dowda.

Rocket RWC Commentary

The Rockets have been putting together some tips for the All Blacks, and how they could use the Habits of Mind to succeed in the 2011 Rugby World Cup. We have had some fun with drama to role play what this would look like. This was adapted from a fabulous original script from "Habits - Centre Stage" by Sandra Brace.

Big Maggie

In the holidays, Marvin visited his cousin, Big Maggie. Big Maggie lives in Christchurch. She is the brainiest Elephant in the world, and uses the Habits of Mind to be successful in all areas of her life. We have written about how Marvin uses the Habits of Mind to be successful inside and outside the classroom. We gave examples of how he does this too. We would love you to come in and read them, and we will post some on our writing page.
