The Presentation

For Social studies Room 1 has been studying Early Maori life. We learnt so much we felt that we had to share it with our parents. So on the 17 of September 2009 we hosted a Social studies night. 100 people came!
It was a marvellous event.

We showed the parents our BOB HERE claymation movie we made in Term 2. We made the movie in ONLY 2 WEEKS! You can see it further down our Blog if you want to.
The parents were hugely impressed.

Next was our Gingerbread Photo Story - this showed pictures of our gingerbread baking - part of our maths unit on Measurement.
One small child in the audience said "Awwww - that's beautiful", and we all laughed!

We have 9 kapahaka students in our class. They dressed up in our school's precious piupiu and sang and performed Haere Mai to introduce our Early Maori Life part of the presentation.
Then we presented our Early Maori Life slide shows. They were fantastic.
One of the students didn't have any of her group there but she was very brave and presented it by herself. She did a great job.
We finished the night off with our teacher, MooDeb's fantastic last speech.
The parents want us to have presentation evenings more often!

Our next challenge is to convert our Powerpoint presentations into Moviemaker so we can play them here on our Blog. We also have some photos.... good things take time!
(Luckily we have an expert in our class - Maadom!)
