Being a Room 5ian

I finally can express my feelings about being a room 5ian. What's it like, you wonder. Oh yeah, a bright spark in the 2007 (?) room 5 (?) came up with the word Room 5ians-simply stands for all the people in room 5. Other people who know that bright spark's blogger name can comment. Well, I'm not a room 5ian without Mr Woody, if there weren't Peachgrove Intermediate there won't be a Room 5. If you want to learn more about Mr Woody and Room 5ians, go to his blog on: http://www.peachgroveroom5.blogspot.com/.

Room 5, to me, is heaven. All thanks to Mr Woody, I now have got a class with BRILLIANT classmates, new learning style and more.

Now in room 5, we are starting an inquiry project on HamiltON (promoting Hamilton). We will do a digital story about it for presenting. Creative, eh? Check out what we're doing on our blog. Right now, my group had thought of the key question for the HamiltON project. Our topic is about the pollution in the Hamilton Lake & Waikato River. The key question is: What causes the pollution in the Hamilton Lake and Waikato River, and how does it effect us? My group has three people, including Mech Boy and Jojo. For the project we've been helping each other out ever since (They are quite brainy). We are now dividing the jobs out equally and according which jobs we like to do. For example: Gathering information about the Lake and the River, sorting out which parts of the digital story should be deleted and which order they go into. Our group is now finding info about the Lake and the River.

My classmates are pretty helpful and supporting. Say Bob, he's been... telling everyone what to do when they forget (including me), contributing to group discussions and giving out top-notch ideas. Oh yeah, please don't forget CAPTAIN JACK. Ever since we became buddies, he's never let me down before, always give me support when I'm stressed out, and congratulating me on his blog.

If you were a Room 5ian, you should...

• Care for your classmates and their properties.
  


• Be proud of that you have an awesome teacher and classmates.



• And most important of all, taking part in the Room 5ian culture (Marshall's point of view).

The room 5ian culture and history... (you should ask Mr Woody about the history) in my opinion, the room 5ian culture is quite simple to learn and get used to. (To Mr Woody: it would help improve our class if we have a class treaty.)

Before we get on with the culture, you might want to ask some 5-W's questions.

Who can be a Room 5ian? Anyone who is a Year 6 that is going to leave primary school can apply for our class. How can you be a Room 5ian? Easy. Just ask Mr Woody or the school office to give you the details. What does a Room 5ian do? Study, help you, guide you, save you (if that's necessary), entertain you... Why be a Room 5ian? Us, as Room 5ians, are 100% toxic-free and we can lead you to victory and everything nice you can think of.

Back to culture- the whole of Room 5ians guarantee you that we will never, I repeat, never do anything bad or inappropriate to anyone. We study hard, play fair and never let you down. All of us can be creative which leads to ultimate thinking and something else.

Go the Peachgrove Intermediate Room 5ians!
