Reuben's Got Talent

This term our Inquiry focus will be based around the Olympics. The class have been given a fictional scenario in which they are to become experts and we will be ‘travelling’ to London to fulfil this task.

The Olympic Committee has asked you to be the Selector and Coach of a group of athletes who are going to be taken to the 2016 Olympics. It will be your job to prepare them for the Olympics and ensure they are in tip top condition leading up to the games.

We will need to:

Find out how the Olympics are run and timetable of the events

What sports are included in the Olympics?

What are the rules of the sports?

Get to know the athletes that are there this year and find out their results

Learn how to coach someone/What does a good coach do?

Find out what makes someone good at what they do/successful

What do you need to be healthy?

How do you get fit?

Reading

Today we read an e-book called Olympic Dreams by Claire Llewellyn. It helped us to find out more facts about the Olympic Games. Click on the book to read it again.  Leave a comment with 1 fact that you learnt while reading this book

Introducing Caity Stevens....

Wow! Today we were lucky enough to have Caity share her special talent, which is KARATE with us. She was so well organised as she had prepared a slideshow with information about karate and even a video for us to watch showing what happens in a karate lesson. She showed us a karate routine and then taught us all a few moves. We were so impressed! Well done Caity, you did such a wonderful job speaking to us today. We loved sharing your special gift.

Special Talents

Room 20 is full of individuals with unique talents. After watching an amazing video on a girl who taught her dog to dance we decided that we wanted to celebrate the talents we have within our class.  Every Friday we will have some-one from our class share their special talent.  You could sing, dance, do gymansatics or karate, show us a piece of artwork, play an instrument or demonstrate an experiment.  The list goes on and on!

To begin with tell us what activities you are involved with both in school and out of school. 
Please write your first name and then list the activities. For example:
Jessie - In school:  kapa haka, keyboard
Out school:  Girl Guides and netball.

Keep watching this space as we will show you just how are amazing we are...but for now watch this!
