Look at the awesome experiment we did today...

As part of our inquiry into digestion today we did this amazing
experiment.  You can click on the link below and
watch it again…


I have never heard so many children saying… eww...
that is disgusting… you made poo Mrs Massey…
Later I asked if they enjoyed the experiment and
they said it was the worst thing they have ever seen
but so cool!!

Here is our finished poo next to the normal baked beans…

Learning about the digestive system

Oh my gosh how fun is it to inquiry into the human body?  
Until today Room 11 had no idea that it could be
so interesting…

I set them the challenge to research the digestive
system using QR codes. (These still work if you have
a QR code reader on your phone or tablet)

They could also use books…  Then they had to
make a 3D model of the digestive system.  
Here they are at the end of the day wearing their

Wow who knew Room 11 could get so messy…


But the finished poems were fantastic…



Metaphor Poems

Mrs Massey signed up Room 11 onto the Get NZ Writing

We had to learn about and write our own metaphors.
Here are our finished metaphors ready to be sent off…
