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'.

Gracie and Luca out and about!

 

Cute photo of you and Luca scootering. Yes, it has been very windy and stormy lately. 

I'm glad that you could have a sleepover at your Grandparents house. That must have

been lots of fun.

Fun Friday 21st August

 

Have you been practising your Handwriting lately?

How about visiting Slide 9, activity 2 sbout writing a Recipe.

I know most of you enjoy eating food and this is a fun activity

where you can make some food and record the recipe with pictures and words.

Enjoy and have a wonderful weekend with your whanau.

Mrs Smaill 

Lucas and Max sharing their home learnng.

Sounds like and looks like you are having lots of fun with Max.

You are very clever with your painting.

Thank you for having a go with the Semaphore flags.

Maybe you could bring them to school later so that we could practice sending messages.

Pirate Toby!!

 

Wow! I see Pirates Toby and Eleanor have been very busy with their home learning.

I like how you have completed a variety of learning like the Maths, Art, Drama, Technology and

 Written Language. Did you show Grandma how to use the robot arms to spell out the words?

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!                                                        

Teddies and Toys Galore !!!

TEDDIES AND TOYS GALORE!
We hope you are enjoying reading our stories that we brought home this weekend to share with you
about our teddy or favourite toy.

Toby's Home Learning with his Grandparents

I'm glad you enjoyed learning about how 

craters are made.

It looks like you have some expert helpers 

there with you.

Yes, it was a very full moon last night. I went outside to see it too because the sky was lit

 up so brightly!

I look forward to hearing about your interesting story tomorrow 

at the Live Google Meet.

Gosh, you must have a lot of Dinosaurs to make a row

 measuring 1.2 metres.

Kai pai - keep up the awesome learning.

Tejaswini's Home Learning

Wow! What beautiful work you have created Tejaswini. 

I can see that you are very creative. A talented artist, I think.

Did you enjoy the Hop Scotch game that I suggested? I remember

playing this when I was a child. It teaches you a lot of skills like -

counting in order, balance, throwing and aiming skills too. Not to

mention practising how to hop on one leg. I love the Maths activities

as well. Fantastic setting out of your work. I think we should try

that game back at school with collecting the right number of objects.

Laela's Activities

I love the colour of your Police car.
Yes, Police work very hard in our communities and they are very important.

This is a great selection of your favourite movies.
I think Frozen 1 and 2, have been a big success and are favourites with lots of children.

Blake's Fantastic Learning

Your story writing Blake has improved greatly.
I can read it very clearly.
What I miss most about school is seeing my lovely smiling student faces.
It's a very cute picture with the sunshine and the rainbow.

Clever Lucas

You are very clever Lucas using Lego
to make Iron Man.

What a cute picture and story of you, Dad
and Max playing soccer.
I bet you had fun and used up some
of that energy.

We are sad to say good-bye to Arianna but wish her all the best with her new house and school at Meadowbank.

Lovely, Orlando.

Art and Crafts with Laela and Jaxon

Wow Laela. You and Jaxon are both so creative!
I love your Bubble Activity book. It will be a fantastic
record for you to keep and share with us back at school.
I wonder what flowers you are going to grow in the painted pots.
It would be great to see a photo of the finished result.
Do you have a place to hang up the colourful hats and jellyfish?

Lockdown Diary from Lydia

Hi Lydia

Thank you for following up the idea of writing
a Diary during the Lockdown. I can see you 
have been very busy. As always, you have
lovely neat handwriting and beautiful artwork.

What a cute picture and story, Blake.
I know you love riding your bike and
you are very good at doing it.
I love the yellow flowers.

Dino's Home Learning

I am pleased that you enjoyed my video Dino.
It is new learning for me so I have been in the learning pit recently and are now out the other side, having sucessfully posted a few videos on the class blog.
Did you see my post on Day 4 of the Lockdown of my Veggie Garden I planted? You have different plants in your garden to me. I hope they keep growing. I think the rain will help water them. It saves me a job at the moment.

Arianna - stories from home

Lovely to see your stories, Arianna.
I am pleased that you are helping at home, using
our Sunnyhills GEMS and that you have continued
with our learning about Time.
Keep up the great work!
