Culture

Culture

In Room 8 we have spent a lot of time in the first term getting to know each other and learning about the Room 8 families, looking at where we came from and the culture we have within our families. We realise that all families have a culture of their own and that is this something to be celebrated. 

While we were sharing and discussing our own family cultures we discussed how Room 8 could (and does) have it's own culture. As a result of this discussion, we thought about events that happen throughout the year that we might like to celebrate. We chose a few different event and came up with ways to celebrate these within our class.

Extra:

Further to our discussions around families we also looked at our favourite places to visit within New Zealand. We also completed research around where our families came from and displayed both of these in our classroom.

We also made hand prints that we decorated and made into a flower showing us all united and growing together. We put these alongside our class treaty.
