Talking about our Projects

In Learning Neighbourhood 2 we started talking about doing "Passion Projects" this term. We talked about the different parts that the students would need to include. We started of talking about a historical component. For our new learning agreement, students have to describe an historical event - here are some we brainstormed:

A funny poem

"On the Ning Nang Nong" by Spike Milligan:

On the Ning Nang Nong
Where the Cows go Bong!
and the monkeys all say BOO!
There's a Nong Nang Ning
Where the trees go Ping!
And the tea pots jibber jabber joo.
On the Nong Ning Nang
All the mice go Clang
And you just can't catch 'em when they do!
So its Ning Nang Nong
Cows go Bong!
Nong Nang Ning
Trees go ping
Nong Ning Nang
The mice go Clang
What a noisy place to belong
is the Ning Nang Ning Nang Nong!!

Lemonade Stand - Strategy Game

When I was your age I used to love playing a game called, “Lemonade Stand”. In this game you have to make money by making and selling lemonade. Depending on what supplies you buy, the weather on the day or how much you charge for a glass will impact on the profits you make.

Click here for the newest version of this game.

Here is another version you could try.

Here is a place where you download the version that I used to play!!

Investigating Robotics

Although a few years old, I dragged the old Lego Robotics kits out and the children sorted the kits out and began creating their robots. The next stage is to teach them how to program their robots on the computer.
