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.

Tae kwon do

In room 2 we have been going to Tae Kwon do. We have been practising kicking and punching. This week was our last week and we broke boards using our feet and hands. We had to have the right technique or else we couldn't break the board no matter how strong we hit the board. Here is a piece of writing we did on explain everything. We did the writing then we found a picture of us on google drive and inserted it with our writing. Here is some of our work.

Maui and the Sun

Last term our inquiry topic was Myths and Legends. We looked at lots of different myths and legends. We really enjoyed learning about Maui and we drew the sun from Maui and the Sun.
We practised first by drawing them in our inquiry books. We practised drawing the half sun and then a full circle to see which one we liked best.

If you went to the Matariki light festival at Te Oro you might have seen some of our artwork because it was on display at an exhibition!

Room 2's Zoo

In Room 2 we made posters of animals we would love to see at the zoo! 

Look at how our reading is progressing!

We can write- By room 2

This week in Room 2 we have been reading the big book I can write. The book is about a boy who shows us all the places he can write, so we decided we would make a book of the places that we write in our classroom.
