What could our classroom look like?

Today we had the opportunity to design our new learning spaces.  We looked at different YouTube clips, magazines, catalogue etc. We also discussed what our furniture could look like, things that could be developed.  It was a lot of fun!

Some interesting sites/ videos to view

Anthony discusses Samoan culture and traditions

What an AWESOME opportunity having Anthony sharing his traditions and knowledge with the class. We have learned so much more about Samoa and you asked SOOOOO many questions! Your questions were amazing everyone and I could tell that you enjoyed the experience. I have found out heaps too, especially about Tapa, girls dress length and what the leis are for. What did you learn/ enjoy?
 Anthony made a MASSIVE bowl of Chop Suey. Most of the class had never tried this - they were so brave! So yummy! Some of you tried to go back for thirds!!!!
