Celebrating the Royal Visit

This week Room 10 did an inquiry about The Royal Family.Students brought information from home and shared it with the rest of the class. Students in Room 10 also watched the news daily and their daily task was to find out the colour of Katherine's (The Dutchess) dress that she wore to different places /events daily.
The students also had to do an investigation on...."Can you make a flag banner to celebrate the Royal visit to New Zealand."A large  New Zealand Flag was hung on the wall and copies of the  United Kingdoms(British) flags, pegs, scissors,cellotape, glue stick, a long string and colouring pencils were provided.The students had to work out how to make a banner.
 These photographs explain the events during the week.

Room 10's third Environment award for the term from Ms J. 

Miss S was the first student who brought a magazine and shared it with the class.
Her Grandmother let her borrow the magazine because Miss S told her about Room 10's Royal Week.

Miss C brought two magazines to share with the class and she left it in the classroom for the students to read.

The students use the New Zealand flag to help figure out the colours on the Union Jack (British Flag)

Master T worked out  that all the triangles had to be coloured blue.
Clever boy Master T. 

Miss C and Miss A decide to use the scissors to cut the flag .

Miss C is the first one to hang her flag and decided to use the cellotape to attach the flag to the string.

Miss A looked at Miss C's flag and tried to hang her flag.

OOps her flag won't stay on so she decided to use a peg to attach the flag onto the string but............

Miss A has no idea how to use the purple peg so she picked up another kind of peg .

Miss A tried again and again and again using different pegs to hang her flag and finally she did it all by herself.

 Well done Miss A for having a go and not giving up. 

Room 10 was able to make a flag banner to celebrate the Royal visit and most students know the purpose of making the flag.The students also can name the signs and symbols on the New Zealand flag and the purpose of the union Jack on the New Zealand Flag.
