What is Ururangi?
Thanks for asking!
Ururangi is Poutama's Creativity Programme. It runs along side out Literacy and Numeracy programmes. The best part about Ururangi, is that we get opportunities to learn collaboratively with out peers. Mrs Lunn is working in Ururangi for this term. She will be setting us challenges to complete in that time. Our learning will be integrated with Maths and Inquiry. Mrs Lunn will be taking workshops on the knowledge and skills we need to complete the challenge, as well as being available for on the spot learning.

Challenge One: On a Mission
We can't wait to find out what creative challenge she has in store for us...
Mrs Lunn has challenged us to make a Map of Riverdale School. We need to draw our map to scale in order to be successful. Our map must have a key and there must be some clues so that our map can lead our friends to an undisclosed location. Today we started to explore some of the skills and knowledge we would need in order to complete this challenge.
Today we looked at an old map of the school. We had to change where the different teams are now located. Our next step is to work out how big each building is so that we can try and draw our maps to scale. Sounds tricky you say... not with our flash new measuring wheel!
We spent a few lessons measuring different parts of the school. We came together at the end to compare our measurements to check that we were accurate.
We have been busy drawing our maps of Riverdale School. It is pretty tricky but check out how we have done!
