Swimming recount

In Room 2 we have been writing recounts. These 3 children have learnt the structure for a recount and have created a piece of writing together about going swimming. They were focusing on ordering events and using time words. Have a look at their work here in the video!

Fun Friday

Today Jairus chose to do our basic sight word puzzle. He was able to match and read all the words! He is now going to start learning his blue words at home. Ka pai Jairus!

It's My Bread by Diana Noonan

In Room 2 we have been reading lots of books, here is our retelling of It's My Bread by Diana Noonan.

We even made cardboard puppets of the animals in the story.

Our Shape Monsters

In Room 2 we drew pictures of monsters, we used different shapes for different parts of our monsters.

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! 

The Very Hungry Caterpillar - Sequence
