Room 5 students take ownership of their classroom!

Well gang, I have to say I was mightily impressed with your engagement, motivation and ownership of learning today.  Maelys shared her expertise in French, we practised factors in maths (with a bit of musical fun thrown in), fabulous deep thinking about the rules for our philosophical discussions, and some lovely descriptions and abstract thinking in our 'Sounds Around Us' writing session.  Then all wrapped up with our class meeting.

I caught just a bit of it on video today - check it out:

    Cool! I think this video would be good for people who want to learn french, and for people that want to vote.

    Maelys's lesson was really fun, and it taught me ALOT of french. THANK YOU MAELYS! And I love having class meetings, but I just wish I was the clas councillor. I love doing these kind of things. Such as taking responsibilities. I really liked the charities we had voted for, but it would have good if one of them got into the final votings!

    Thank you Maelys and Letele for helping me learn french and pick a charity to support. It was really fun, I loved it, and I would do it again if I could.
