Our Space



Our space is a project we’ve been working on over the last 2 months. The 1st stage of our project was making a diagram of our classroom rearranged and stuff. The 2nd stage of our project was making our dream classroom. Some people made diagrams and models or posters. After that we presented them to the class. We said why should we arrange it that way. Before we presented, we practiced presenting to the class while no one looked.

G says “We tried to make it realistic and not to make it all imaginary or impossible to make.”

A says “Dreaming about you classroom is not a bad thing but sometimes if you dream too hard you will get disappointed

B says “It was odd because we normally do projects about other things and this was interesting because it was new.

Our Space was really fun and all but the best part of it was the hands on work” - G

Our Space was all out fun for us”. - A

Our Space it was so much better than our normal projects” - B

We hope we can do so much more like our space
Our space was the best project we’ve done!!!!!!!!!!

Room 17’s individual ideas for a hip and legit classroom
This month, room 17 has been working to create a better workspace by arranging the furniture. So we have been measuring the classroom and everything inside. Next Michael posed a question: “What if you could do anything with our classroom with out the worry of how we were going to get the furniture?” Some people went so crazy with it they even put teleportation devices, elevators, swimming pools and even doors that lead to other countries. Then we raised another question “What is the purpose of a classroom?” A lot of Room17’s intelligent and good looking children were disappointed when their teacher posed the rule that everything needed educational purposes. They were deprived of pointlessness, so they needed to think of a way through tough times. So some of them made their classrooms normal but the others pressed on their quest and still yet made their classrooms high enough that when you jumped off you would never hit the ground (okay maybe that was a bit of an exaggeration but it was still awesome)! Now the presentations have begun and we have guest judges including Bill gates, Matt Groening, and special performances by the Rolling Stones! (Okay maybe just us and our teacher, but oh well). Everyone made their projects original and amazing. We will be looking forward to our next project to come.
Peace,
M and J
