Today we started learning about turns. It's a maths topic that is part of geometry. We learned to turn our bodies to 90, 180, and 360 degrees.
We watched some skiing and skateboarding clips of people doing turns. Amazing!
180 on a bike to see how to do a 180 (half turn) on a bike.
On Friday B6 had two lovely visitors. Sheryl and Kelly are student teachers from America, and they are visiting Glenholme School because they heard how good New Zealand schools are. They come from very different parts of U.S.A., and have different accents to each other. Kelly comes from Colorado near the Rocky Mountains, where they have deep, deep snow in winter. Sheryl comes from Texas, in the south, where it is 40 degrees in summer. They helped us with our maths, and our sewing. They showed us on the globe, where their home-towns are.
