CIB Sharing

Room 30 has been learning about animals and topics that apply to animals and have done some fact finding research.

This involved identifying what we already knew or thought we knew and adding new found facts to our knowledge. To share we had a choice of video, sound recordings, slide shows, drama and posters.

We had our presentations and showed our facts in a creative way. Here is one example of a slideshow:

Robotics Club

Balmoral School has recently set up the opportunity to be involved in a Robotics Club as part of the Lego Mindstorm for education initiative. This is the first year we are looking into entering a team of children to take part in the robotics competition. The competition not only involves programming a Mindstorm robot to enter a set series of challenges, but also involves a large research project.

This entry is to allow you and your teams to discuss and contribute to the ideas around community, and what it is. See the out take from the site instructions. Use this post over the holidays to share your ideas about this big idea.

Begin your project by describing your community. This season, it is up to your team to define your community. Is it your school? your neighborhood? your city, village, or town? your country? the world? Be prepared to share how you defined your community.
