Wonder Wall

I wonder…
How teeth grow.
How houses are made.
How volcanoes are made.
If I would have false teeth.
How they make carry bags.
How old John Key is.
If Santa is alive.
How volcanoes erupt.
How cars are made.
Why you can’t change time.
How ink is made.
How people grow older.
If you can bring people back to life.
How seeds are made.
How heavy our classroom is.
Why money exists.
How all the world started.

Our Pen Pals made this video for Room 11! :D




With big thanks to Elisabeth!!!



"Today our pen-pals’ teacher made a video for my class and me. It talked about New Zealand and all the things they learnt from us. It had lots of things about New Zealand. For example the Sky Tower and the Auckland Harbour Bridge in as well, and lots of other things like that. I was very excited. I am sure my class was too. They put our school gate in the video. It is cool that they are in another country thinking about our school. Don't you think so?"
by Georgina -6 years old.



Thank you for showing us your school!
We loved the video!
