Sense Poems

A highlight of last term for Room 9 was seeing the Umu being prepared for Aloha night. We were so excited that we went back to class and wrote sense poems about the Umu. Here they are with Room 10's Antarctica facts from our assembly item. 
Enjoy!!!

  5. Hi Room 9, You have done some fabulous graphic art and writing about the umu. I really enjoyed the plate I got to eat when I came to visit too. What a great way to share your work - making a movie and publishing it on your blog.
