Mystery Skype with Indonesia

Today in class we took part in our first Mystery Skype session of 2016. It was a country that Mr Webb has not even Skyped before - we were lucky to mystery Skype wiht 4A AIS from Jakarta, Indonesia.

We learnt a whole lot about their country - it has a few more people than New Zealand in it. It was a fantastic experience for our students and has left us looking to answer lot more questions about Indonesia. You can click on the link to 4A AIS here.

Auroa Primary School Connecting with Opunake and Australia

This week in class we're going to be connecting with two schools in quite different locations.

Firstly on  Friday afternoon we held our first ever Mystery Skype Call for Room One.  We had assembly but Meg and Aylssa did a fantastic job and it turned out we were talking to our new friends from Mrs T. and 6RC.  They're based in Sydney, Australia.  After our chat we received comments from most of the class so we were thrilled to make the connection.  Their fantastic blog is linked here.

Secondly we were very excited on Friday to find there are some other local schools that are also blogging and producing wonderful work.   Our friends at Opunake Primary School are blogging online throughout their school.  We're particularly liking the work from Room One (Y7/8 class), Room 14 and  Room 15 you can click on all the wonderful blogs here.
