Over the past three weeks, the tamariki have learnt what is needed and the steps involved in paper making with Whaea Anahera – check out our class site link.
The students started off their learning with a Kahoot and KWL chart so they could talk about what they know and what they would like to learn about the paper making process.
Then they read a journal story called Making Paper by Trish Puharich which describes how a class turned waste paper into an interesting, new kind of paper. The students worked in groups to read and summarise how to make paper using a flow chart. The students then worked together to talk about each steps and make a poster to show others what to do. The students discussed how making paper is related to Science then last week they each had a go at making their own paper in class, which was engaging and a lot of fun ! Ngā mihi to Whāea Anahera!
Leah, Alex and Sylvie have written about the paper making process and the tamariki are going to share their own experiences on their blogs this week. Stay tuned!
