We are back at Ruapotaka School but learning in the library instead of Room 10 at the moment. To help us think about working together as we face our latest challenges, we completed a teamwork challenge. Each team was given 25 straws, one strip of Blutak and five minutes to see who could build the tallest tower.
It wasn't really about the tallest tower, it was about taking turns to talk, listening to others, co-operating and collaborating as each team came up with a plan. It was wonderful to see three-quarters of the teams face this challenge successfully!
Welcome to our blog which shares the learning and celebrates the successes of our amazing Year 5 and 6 learners in Room 10 from 2014-2016. We are part of the Manaiakalani cluster in Panmure, Auckland, and have taken huge pleasure in sharing our digital learning journey over this time. Kia ora!

Crossing the river!
This morning we challenged ourselves to work in groups to solve a problem: how could we work together successfully to cross the imaginary river in Room 10?
We came up with some different strategies but the most successful team ripped up their two pieces of paper to make small "stepping stones" to cross the river without getting wet! It was fantastic to see such wonderful teamwork, cooperation and collaboration.
