Final Kidsedchatnz Chat for Term 2

This term lots of room 1 children have taken part in the Kidsedchatnz sessions. Our class uses twitter to talk with other kids all around NZ.

The slideshow is a collection of some of the best tweets that we sent during our final chat session.

Well done to Kaleb who took part for the first time and sent several tweets all by himself.

Hosting Kidsedchatnz

This week Room 1 hosted Kidsedchatnz. We had to come up with the questions for the chat session and Mr Walker had to moderate the lesson. Our students were joined by children from around the country to talk all about culture. We also had a student from each of room 4 & 7 with us to join in.

The questions we used were:

The room 1 kids did a great job and helped choose the tweets of the week and pointed out when Mr Walker needed to send the next question.

Thanks to Sara, Carys, Renitta, Jordan, Francis, Angus and Daijahn for taking part in Room 1.

Follow's last day at HNS

Tomorrow I (Mr Walker) have to send Follow, the kidsedchatnz mascot, onto his next holiday destination. He is heading off to Broadlands School but first we let him and Action Man have some fun times together and got some photos of Follow having fun At our school.

The story about follow

Follow was lonely in the dark, he has no family so he was afraid of the dark box.

He started to look for food to eat. He went out of the box and he tried to look for food in the rubbish bin and he found a donut and he was excited to eat the donut.
Fellow went on an adventure to New Zealand to every class to make new friends. He went to Henderson North School to find friend to tweet with him and he went to rm1 first because we tweet to a lot of friends and meet heaps of friends to play with.
