Transition


Every Friday, Year 3 students work with the Year 4 and 5 students to get to know their new space, friends and teachers. 

Today we did a thinking activity called the BAR key. BAR makes things BIGGER, ADDS something and REPLACES something. We brainstormed lots of ideas and came up with some new inventions. Our students are very good at thinking outside of the box.

Students from Autahi came into Tautoru today for our transition time. They did some writing based on the story, "Brown Bear, Brown Bear."
