GEMS Playground

Wow! We rocked it, first class to go on the new GEMS playground. Lots of fun!

Mrs Smaill even tried out the spiral slide. Note: Watch your head - ouch!

Under the Sea

Jacob brought in his new book about Little Hector Dolphin and this led on to Room 10 students doing some inquiry about Hector Dolphins and other sea creatures. They wrote stories and poems about 'Under the Sea'.

Arnie the Donut

Room 10 visited our Buddies and listened to a story about Arnie the Donut.

It is a very funny story because he did not want to be eaten!

Then we designed our very own cool donuts !!!

Glorious Vegetables 🌶 🍅 🌽

We read a big book called, 

Max's Sandwich. It was a healthy

sandwich with lots of vegetables,

cheese and meat. Then we made 

our own sandwich pictures using

paper collage.

Te Reo Language Week

Listen to Room 10 sing a lovely Waiata today to

celebrate Maori Language Week.

Megaphones increase the sound of your voice.

We tested this out!!

Father’s Day Surprise

To all the Room 10 Dads

Father's Day!

Lockdown Level 3

After our first Lockdown, Room 10 made a PMI chart that recorded all the students ideas.

So ... after Lockdown Level 3 each child recorded their own ideas.

 A PMI chart is -  Plus - positive aspects

                             Minus - negative aspects

                             Interesting - different or interesting things that occurred

Flag Semaphore Signals to send messages.

Maybe write a message with the online Semaphore

Converter - it is a lot of fun!

And for Technology you could make two semaphore

flags of your own to use.

Our Enormous Sandwiches

Sandwiches for lunch anyone? We read a shared book about a huge sandwich that Max made, so we

decided to make our own sandwiches. We haven't quite finished all of them so watch this space!

When we return to school, we will finish them and display the sandwiches in all their glory.

COMMUNICATION

Lydia shared her learning about COMMUNICATION            with our class. Lydia made POSTCARDS with                  kind positive messages to her friends.

Mrs Smaill tried to buy a Post Box for our classroom but they had all sold out so Lydia kindly solved the problem for us.   She made a POST BOX to put all our class postcards in. 

And Laela made a lovely POSTER with pictures and stickers to share give to her friend Alexander.

         These are all ways of sharing COMMUNICATION!                                                        

Owl Stories - Retelling
