Room+18

Room 18 is an exciting and vibrant place to be. Early in Term 3 our classroom experienced a complete makeover! Our old furniture was replaced with exciting hexagonal tables and Bodyfurn chairs so that our studnets could have more opportunities to work in a co-operative manner. Did you know that a million dollars was spent by the Massey University in the desgin of these special chairs? Keeping up with the latest technology, Room 18 now has its very own interactive whiteboard as well!

Continuing with our focus on Sustainability, Room 18's inquiry question is: **How can we use energy in a sustainable way at Sylvia Park School?** It is hoped that we can filter what we learn in our classroom into our homes in due course.

The students are also learning how to write a persuasive text which they will use to present their speeches. These are to be ready and well rehearsed by Week 8. Please help your child and encourage them to deliver their speech to you and your family.

Please feel free to drop in and see us in Room 18.
