Tha Zin Immersion Assembly

Today on the 29th of April which is also the first day of term 2 of school, this term's theme is I like your latitude. The question that we are focusing on is "Where in the latitude are you?" and also we are going to be learning about Longitude and Latitude this term.

All of the teams each made a mini movie to show what they are going to be learning in their classes and even Mr Vogt, Mrs Lagitupu and Miss Va'afusuaga made a mini movie of their own since each year they don't get to make their own movie. Team 1's movie was about saving bees and trying to create more of the bees so that they don't go extinct, using latitude and longitude they are going to find the nearest bee hive and try to help them to survive in the wild.

Team 2's mini movie was about when they had a Easter egg hunt last term and how they found the eggs, to find them team 2 looked under, over, left, right and all around their space to find the chocolate covered marshmallow eggs. This term they will be hiding their own treasure and will be creating their own treasure maps and once they have completed their maps they will give the map to their friends and they will try to find the hidden treasure.

Team 3's movie was about pick a path this term they will be focusing on pick a paths and they will be getting to pick where they go, in the movie Miss Scanlan gave an example where she was walking to school and along the way she met a fairy who gave her some choices to go to make the walk to school a bit more fun.

Team 4's movie was about how all the teachers accept for Mr Goodwin all gathered at pak n save and Mr Goodwin gave them a task that they could not use their gps or their car to get back to school he left a map close to where they met at and off they went trying to find the way back to school, when they arrived back at school they were all mad at Mr Goodwin because he was the one who made them go through what they just went through. 

Team 5's little play was about VTA which stands for Virtual Travel Agency Miss Tapuke and her family wanted to go on a two week vacation and the first continent that they went to was Europe where the Eiffel tower was and the second location they went to was North America where they went to Disneyland and the third place they went to was Africa where Miss Tapuke got to pet a lion in the wild the last place that they went to was Asia where they went to the great wall of China.

S.M.C which stands for Sporty Space, Maker Space and Creative Space Miss Va'afusuaga who is the Sporty Space teacher and Mr Vogt who is the teacher for Maker Space and lastly Mrs Lagitupu who is Creative Space teacher also created their own movie, their movie was about Teachers in Space it was about what time they wake up, how they get to school, how much time they take to get to school and which way to go to school, and also they showed all the things that they need to take care of at school.

My favourite out of all it was Teachers in Space I enjoyed seeing their morning routine and how they take care of the emergency's at school. Mr Vogt helped pick up the rubbish so that the "virus" does not spread around the school and Mrs Lagitupu took care of all the coding and laptop stuff and Miss Va'afusuaga who took care of the meteoroid from hitting earth.

Overall I am very very excited for what we are going to be learning this term and excited about my animation and also about learning latitude and longitude and learning about all the continents and where they are.
