Problem of the Week

The Snails Pace.

Gary the snail began to climb straight up a wall. The wall was made of bricks and was exactly 24 bricks high. Gary climbed up three bricks each day. At night poor old Gary would slide back two bricks.

How many days did it take Gary to reach the top of the wall?



Over the last three weeks room 21 has been making animations based on Maori legends. We based the animation on Maui and the Sun.
 We were split into about ten groups with three or four students in each group. Four girls painted the background and all the rest was made from clay. So far only two have been finished and the first one was made by Hugo, Caycee and Benji. Room 21 will continue making more animations across the year.

Retelling Maori legends with claymation

Welcome

Welcome to room 21's blog. Room 21 has loved the first couple of weeks with their new teacher David who
has helped us learn new strategies in all subjects including PE and art. Room 21 has had lots of fun and is hoping to have even more through out the rest of 2014 in their new classroom.
