Our day

It was a hot day today so it was challenging at times to concentrate on our work. 

We had a practice for prizegiving. We learnt how to go on and off the stage, and how to shake hands and accept a certificate correctly. 

After finishing our Reading activities we had the chance to make some Christmas decorations with different lengths of paper. 

Decorating

This morning we helped to decorate our mini Christmas tree.

We did some more graphing. This time we sorted animals, then pasted them on s graph. 

Before we went home we made some jingle sticks. 

Friday highlights

The We had our last Kiwi Can session for the year. We revised all the things we have been learning, then played a game of 'in the river, on the bank'. 

In Math time we sorted a pile of colours circles and made graphs with them. 

We made a puppet out of an envelope. 

We have started to decorate our cupcake boxes. 

Thursday highlights

Today when we finished our reading tasks we went outside with some chalk and practiced writing words on the ground! Some of us even wrote stories on the ground!

We had an earthquake drill today. We had to quickly find a table to hide under and cover our heads. 

We worked on our cupcake boxes today too. 

Wednesday Highlights

For Math we were learning how to collect data in an investigation. We rolled a die and recorded each outcome as a tally. 

During Music we made our own little guitars using boxes and rubber bands. The rubber bands produced different pitches sounds depending on how tight it was pulled. 

Tuesday Highlights

Room 11 sang a song at the Helper's morning tea. We were shy to look at our audience but we still sang with confidence. 

This week we are writing a story about a giraffe who climbed a tree! We really had to use our imagination to think about why he did that and what would happen to him next! Here is an illustration of the giraffe from Grace's writing book. 

This week Maima, Malaga and Dinarah have shown loads of improvement because they now can get in the pool with confidence and can use the pool noodles to help them float!

Well done girls!
