I think we really explained this and  how we are all learners and teachers in Room 5 in our Assembly Item on Friday.  Well done, everyone.

Now we have to prove our understanding of this Maori concept by using it each day.

I have seen lots of people doing this!!!



Could you comment about a time you've seen this happening in our room.    

Make sure you add your NAME at the end of the comment so we know who wrote it!

Some of you have been making your own practice tititorea and practising at lunch time.  I am so impressed at how you have found the music on youtube and are trying to learn this all on your own.
