Drop, cover, hold!

On Thursday it the National Shake out day and lots of people around New Zealand did an earthquake drill, which is a practise. A sound came over the speakers and we had to get under a table and hold on. We had to cover our head because we have to look after our brains.

Here is some of the writing we did today. We put in some pictures of us under the tables to show what we did when we did the earthquake drill.

We made paper spinners!

Today in Room 2 we made paper spinners. First we had to colour in the circle on both sides, then Miss Nua put cut holes and help us to thread and tie the string. Then we had to practice making it spin fast. We the used the app Explain everything to take a picture of our paper spinner and write a sentence about it all by ourselves. We all worked really hard and found words on the word card and around the room to use it our writing.

What shapes can you see on our monsters?

Starfish guided reading session

Today during guided reading the starfish learnt to read and write the word come.

We can write it on a whiteboard. 

We can make it with magnetic letters.

We can find it in our book.  

Writing in Room 2!

Today we went to the sandpit to make sandcastles. We found out that patting wet sand was the best way to build a big sandcastle. Some of us worked with buddies and some of us worked by ourselves. Look at these pictures and let us know who you think has made the biggest sandcastle.
