Some of us made straw panpipes. They make a soft, gentle sound.
Some of us made maracas from plastic eggs filled with different kinds of beans.
Tai found out that different beans make different sounds.

Friday Highlights
At Kiwi Can we are learning about respect.
We looked in the box and saw something very special!
During Math we got into groups and worked together to make the longest paper chain.
This group counted 102 links in their chain!
We have been looking at pictures of rangoli patterns. We drew a rangoli-inspired design on a paper plate. We will paint them next week.

Maori instruments
We are learning about Maori instruments. We watched some videos of people playing some wind instruments. Sam said they looked like flutes. Maima said that the sound was made by blowing into them.
We made an instrument called a porotiti which makes a gentle sound when it spins.
Before/after
We cut up pictures of the activities we usually do at school each day then put them in order. We talked about what is before/after.
Narrative writing
This is the narrative story we wrote together yesterday. The trickiest part was thinking about a way to resolve the 'problem'!
