On Monday Rachel came to our school. She came to do the prizes and certificates for the Winter Learning Journey. She gave some people certificates and 3 people prizes. 3rd place was Leilani. 2nd place was me and 1st place was Jessica. When Rachel called my name my heart was pumping. It was hard to hold my prizes. For my prize I got a basketball, drink bottle, Rio 2 DVD, Slingshot, 2 chocolate bars and a book. I liked doing Winter learning Journey.
A special visitor, Rachel Williams from the University of Auckland, came to Room 10 yesterday to tell us all about an online holiday blogging programme she is running during the holidays - from Saturday 9th July until Sunday 24th July. She has created all sorts of writing activities to do with the Olympic Games in Rio.
If we decide to take up her blogging challenge, there are different activities to be completed every day about the Olympic Games. Each time we blog about an activity, we are given points! Certificates for everyone who blogs! Prizes for the most active bloggers with the most points!
