Alcapone Does My Shirts

So we have read the book. Now what do you think about some of the ideas that have come up during the reading? It makes me wonder what makes people famous and why would anyone think that a murderer is someone that people admire? I am interested to hear your views. What do you think prison life was like for Alcapone? The information that you are finding out about this notorious criminal is fascinating! I look forward to your comments!!!!

Our Roof Creaks!

At SAMS our roof creaks when it warms up. The question was, "why does it make that noise?" Miss Hart.
We discussed what the roof is made out of but no one had the anwser to our initial question.
I have now asked students to find out about matter and what happens to a solid object when it heats up. I am looking forward to their answers.

Speeches

Speeches will be presented in week 4 of this term. Good luck. Go to the 'Cave', 'Homework', and use the information to help you with preparing and presenting your speech.

SAMS New Playground

All classrooms are different. Here is one where there is noise, lots of enthusiasm and motivated learners.



What do you think of this class? What are the good things about this class? How would you feel being in this type of learning environment? I really like the way that the students are teaching each other. Could you be a teacher in our class?
What could we do in Tui 2 to improve our learning?

The Thinker

Have you thought about 'thinking'? Are there different types of thinking? Will understanding about thinking skills help you with your learning? What information can you find out about thinking?
