The George Brothers Visit Room 9 SHPS!

On Tuesday the George Brothers came to see us in Room 9. They watched us do our Reading and our Writing and Handwriting. They thought that we were excellent! They popped in to the Reading Recovery Room to see what happens in there!

In the afternoon they helped us with our Maths. After Brain Break they joined us for Music and played some instruments! They especially liked joining in with "Bananas in Pyjamas". They had a really good time in our class. Next stop.....Room 1.

The George Brothers Cheer On SHPS.

Visiting Room 5 (Year 7&8) at Timaru Christian

Well the brothers only had an afternoon with us, but they enjoyed reading about the 'clean' cup issues reported in that morning's paper and how it related to our water cycle unit. It was interesting to note that the toilet seat may be cleaner then your teacher's coffee cup or the sink you wash your hands in. The brothers also had fun using the Bloom's "Thinking Hats" to brainstorm how they could become New Zealand's leading "Hip Hop" duo. They also helped Samantha answer the quiz questions on our Wiki page! Good luck boys on your adventures!!
(Oh yeah that is me holding a "Sucker Fish" in Bluff. First one I have ever seen. Found it in a close to dried up water pool (alive) and it latched on to me right away. Gave it a better water pool to live!

The Georges in Room 4 at Winchester

Wow, what amazing fun Curious and Creative George have had over the week in Room 4 helping us with creating Windows Movie Maker slideshows. We have been showing them how to take pictures with digital cameras and importing these into Movie Maker and adding transitions and sound. The slideshows were all about shipping disasters and we got to draw each slide in our show and then take a photo of it. One day at morning tea time during Read and Feed Curious got covered in yoghurt. “Oh no” everyone said. Creative laughed. Curious looked like he hadn’t been up to mischief. But he had!

Here's Creative and Curious on our school bus with us on the way to our Music Festival singing practice with Temuka, Arowhenua and St. Josephs Temuka Schools. They sang really well even though they didn't know the words very well.
