Te Ika a Maui

To launch our topic OUR PLACE, we have been learning the legend of Te Ika a Maui. We read the story, used drama to act the story out and then watched this retelling. We think it is a pretty cool story.

Today the Polar Bear reading group worked with Lucy from Room 11 to create an animoto of our swimming demonstration. Enjoy!

Circles Maths

"I was bundling sticks into 10s and writing the numbers on the whiteboard". GABRIELLE "I was bundling 10s and putting the rubberband around to make it easier to count". HARRISON "Bundling into 10s makes it easier to count because you can just count in 10s". ELLIE "We were writing the numbers onto our whiteboards using the tens and ones columns". RYAN

Butterflies

There was great excitement in Room 3 last week when our butterfiles hatched out of their chrysalis.  We were really lucky to watch the whole process and we managed to catch it on video.  We will be learning more about life cycles in an upcoming discovery session.  We will have lots of prior knowledge now that we have seen the process from start to finish.
