Recount: Immersion Assembly

Yesterday we had an immersion rotation and the first rotation we had was with miss tuia and what we did for her rotation is we had to complete some slides and find songs on youtube that make us feel that emotion.

 

For Miss parrants rotation we did bus stop and freeze frame. What we did first was we had to complete a task called bus stop . There is gonna be a picture and we have to describe it then every two minutes we rotate to a different table and it just keeps repeating until we go to every table. After that we did freeze frame. What we had to do for freeze frame is miss parrant, read us a book called goldilocks and the three bears. After she read us the book we had to get in groups of five and go outside to pretend that we were the goldilocks and three bears then Miss Parrant came out with her phone to take pictures of some parts from the story. 

 

For room 8 we did emotion train and what we did first was he told us the task that we had to do for his rotation and after he told all that we played a game where where have to line up from shortest to tallest and the person at the front will act out a emotion and we have to copy it at the end we have to guess what emotion the person did and it just keep on repeating. 

 

For room 9’s rotation we did a task called He said/ She said and for the task we had to record a video of us saying UPTHEWAHS or supercalifragilisticexpialidocious which is the longest word in the dictionary and we had to say that in each emotion like Angery, happy, Sad and so on also i’m not really a sports fan so i just said  supercalifragilisticexpialidocious and that what we did for Room 9 Mrs Sio rotation.

 

For Room 10  we did colours. So what I mean by that is we had to write about how we feel about each colour and we had to take pictures of how we felt then write what emotion we were feeling.
