Symbols of the Olympics
Last week we spent time discussing and looking at the symbols of the Olympic Games.
Last week our focus was on the Olympic Rings, Mascotts and the New Zealand Flag.
This week we will look at the Olympic Flame.
In the photos below we are holding our Olympic biscuits that we decorated with our buddy class.
We had to put the rings in order of colour and position.

Olympic Mascots
As part of our inquiry around the Olympic Games we have been talking about Olympic Symbols. Mascots help to build excitement around the games.
The mascots for the London Olympics 2012 are Wenlock and Mandeville. We enjoyed watching the following videos on how they were developed and created.

How about creating your own Mascot?

Olympic Video
We enjoyed watching this video about the Olympic Games.
Discuss how many different sports you can see in the film. We found 12 sports, did you find the same number?

Symbols of the Olympics.
Last week we started to look at symbols that are part of the Olympic Games. We talked about the Olympic flag and the rings on the flag.
We wanted to find out what the rings meant? Why only 5 colours were used?
I wonder what Rm 12 children are able to find out about the rings?
Have a look at the photos in the link below - can you name any of the main attractions in the photos? The rings are turning up everywhere.
Leave a comment about where you might put the rings if the Olympics were in Wellington.

Production Snap Shots
What a fantastic job Room 12 did in our production at the end of last term.
The theme was around our Topic of Clothing and Recycling.
In class we talked about different types of fabric, recycling clothes and also weaving. We used all these elements in our handmade cloaks... They looked wonderful.

Family History
Hi Everyone
I hope you have had a wonderful break and are getting ready for heading back to school.
This term we are going to be thinking about the Olympics. Below is a little video in which I ask you to think about your family history.... who will you be supporting during the Olympics? If you click on the picture of my face you will see a little video.
