Osmo Words


International students are visiting Sunnyhills School in the first half of term 3.  We have Mary, Cruz and Eason in Room 5.  They join in with our learning programme and also have special cultural classes with Mrs Shen. Osmo Words has been a fun way for them to develop their understanding of english words.  They play the game collaboratively and can often be heard calling out the word with excitement while they frantically find the correct letters to make the word.

Game Designers


We have been learning about Matariki and how it is celebrated.  There are several versions of the Matariki legend, but many use the seven stars of Matariki as the main characters.  The 5Stars have been designing board, card and Scratch games to demonstrate our understanding of the legend. 

The games are not finished at the moment, but we're really looking forward to playing them with another class and receiving their feedback.  Game Design is fun!
