Best wishes Jah!

Good bye Jah. We have loved having you in Room 2 this year! We hope you enjoy your new school in Australia. We will miss you!

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.

 Savannah and Jordis's practise sun

 Cheldyn and Vaka's Practise sun 

 Mariah and Jairus's practise sun 

 Fereti's practise Sun

 Chance and Lino's practice sun 

 Orlando's practise sun 

Jah and Dane got to take Mariana's sun home.

Then we did them on a big piece of paper

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!

Check, check, check it out!

Stars of the week!

This week in Room 2 there were 2 stars of the week!

Cheldyn received his star of the week award for always trying his best in everything he does! Isn't that amazing! Well done Cheldyn, you should be very proud of your hard work!

Jah received his award for making great progress in his reading and writing! Since Jah started at school with us he has been working hard and improving so much! Well done Jah, you should also be very proud of yourself!

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.
