A Surviving Assembly

A Surviving Assembly

As I slowly walked in my shoes toward the hall, I was glad it was the last term. It was the first day of Term 4 meaning an immersion assembly. Every beginning of a term, teachers do an act or make a movie to the whole school inside the hall to get us excited for this term and to give us an idea of what the topic is for the term.

This term’s topic was called survivors, we were going to learn about habitats and how things survived. Once I heard that the topic was Survivors I was not that excited of the topic because one thing we were going to learn was about the habitats of animals and dinosaurs which we had already learned from a previous topic.  

There were many movies and acts like Karaoke and Dinosaurs but my favourite was from Team 4. I could see that the teachers were filming students in green screen with an animal in the green screen and the students would have to guess where they were. The teachers will give them clues like “Watch out” or “look at that splash”.

This immersion assembly was by far the best in the whole year. I’m looking forward to this term’s topic, can’t wait. One thing I know that we are learning is that how did humans survive.

Immersion Assembly Term 3

Yesterday was a blast, it was the first day of Term 3 on the 20th of July meaning that there will be an Immersion assembly. Immersion assembly's are when the Teacher's dress up and act or make a movie about the topic of the term to get us excited and into the topic.

My Favorite item was from Team 4, year 5/6. While one teacher was telling a story the other teachers were the characters. "Ounce upon a time there lived a boy named bob with his dog, he was saving up for some games when he found $50 on the ground, his emotions came to help" says Mrs Jacobson as the narrator. 

Extra Happy came along, Calm came along and Sassy came along(these are all teachers). "Wow you found $50 now you can buy the video games" says Extra Happy. Calm replies "oh maybe someone left it on the ground, that could be bad". Sassy said in girls voice " nah man it's fifty dollars who would want to leave fifty dollars man" the students burst out laughing. So what Team 4 is doing is to learn to save money and what to use money for.

My least favourite item was from Team 1, year 1. There one was about selling things at the market, I think what the teachers are trying to say is that they are going to use fake money for selling things in their class. They put on a movie about going to the markets.

I hope this term will be really fun oh and I forgot to tell you that my team is learning about how to be financially responsible. This Term will have some new things coming up. Hope you enjoyed and please leave a comment.

Immersion Assembly

I woke up by the sound of my brothers and sisters eating breakfast, holly cheese I just remembered today was the first day of Term 2, at Point England School. I changed my clothes then ate my breakfast and put my lunchbox in my bag. After what seemed like forever we set out to go to school.

As I arrived I saw a board with this term's topic but that's a surprise for later( I am not going to tell you yet). The second bell had rang and soon the hall will be filled with students. When everybody was settled Mr Burt, our principal announced this term's topic - "I like to move it, move it." At the end of the Immersion Assembly I thought about my favourite item and least favourite item. One item that was confusing was team three's. There item was about colours and light, like how the rainbow was made but that was quite easy the rest were way too overboard. I wish I was a year 3 or 4 so I could learn more about colours.


What got me hooked in was Team 1's item about being a zoo keeper and man they are gonna learn a lot. Also I picked up some words saying that tomorrow, 6th of may they are going to travel to Auckland zoo and find out how to be a zoo keeper and they are going to compare the equipment there and some of the year 1's home collectibles.

What my team was going to learn about was flotation. Like what floats and doesn't also displace(when weight is put into water, that amount of water rises). Buoyancy means , for example a stick can float. We also got to answer questions then have a prize.

Immersion Assembly was fun and I wonder what next term's topic is.
