"The Week that was" reflection for Week 10

Apology from Miss Bolton

Hi Room 8,

 I have to apologise as I accidentally deleted some of our comments from the blog :(

 The layout/settings of page where I go to publish the comments has changed, and I thought I was deleting comments that had been doubled up. They weren't :'(

 Our Quadblogging partners from Hay Park School left some really awesome comments - very well thought out and written. Unfortunately they are gone.

 I have sent some feedback to the Blogger people about this issue, and have asked why they changed it.


**Update = I've found a way to recover the Haypark School comments.  I will get them uploaded by tomorrow.**

Great effort Kaleb!

Well done Kaleb, you have passed the multiplication section of xtramath!

Our first Google Ninja black belt!

Well done Brier, you are the first Room 8 student to achieve a black belt in any of the Google Apps.   I know if I have any questions about using Google Slides, I'll definitely be coming to see you!

Thank you for already sharing your knowledge and helping out the other students in our class.  

Harold's here!

Room 8 was very excited to see the Life Education mobile classroom pull up this afternoon.

Next week every class will have sessions in the classroom with Sally and Harold.

I wonder what we will learn about this year...

Well done Steadfast!

Steadfast has put a lot of effort to gain this certificate.  Awesome work Steadfast!

Room 8 has been learning how to find the area of a shape.  Here is a video to help you remember how we have been working out area.

**Please remember that we don't write more than 1 equals sign on a line!

Growth Mindset clip of the week

Watch this clip.  It is an interview with the musician John Legend.  How did John Legend show that he had a growth mindset?  How can you show that you have a growth mindset?
