Luke's Father's Day Story

Luke received a Thank you! award for his piece of writing on his Dad. Lucky Luke gets to play rugby with his hard-working dad. 

Ano te pai, Luke!

Luke's Perfect Score in Maths

 

Luke achieved his learning goal which was to count on from the bigger number even when the smaller number is given first up to 100. I can see your confidence is growing. Once you knew what to do you didn't have to circle your bigger number. 

Duffy Award for Luke 👏

This morning, Luke received a Duffy Award at the School Assembly because he does his home reading every day, and this has helped him with reading difficult words.

Ano te pai Luke!

Hands by Luke

I have hands to paint and I can do handstands. I can use my hands to count my numbers and I can build with my hands.

Matariki by Luke

Matariki tells us to get the garden ready for the plants because the garden needs new vegetables. 

Word Endings

 

We have been learning how to read and say different word endings. During the Orange's reading session, we picked out words from our book and circled the endings. The children read the whole word and sounded the ending out to the group. Ka Pai Luke, Hine, Eva and Oshin! 

Making Shapes with Explain

Room 5 has been learning about shapes and after reading Makaraka School blogpost about making shapes with Explain Everything we decided we wanted to do the same thing on our ipads.

Home Learning: Luke's Reading

As part of his follow-up guided reading activity today, Luke had to record himself reading his Sunshine Classics ebook, When Itchy Witchy Sneezes. Listen to how well he speaks clearly. His Mum is in the background giving him some encouragement. Well done Mum.

Home Learning: First Day of Group Guided Reading for Term 2 2020

This morning the Bananas and Oranges had their first guided reading lesson with Mrs Golder in a google Hangout Meet. Luke and Eva read 'My Home', an ebook from Sunshine Classics. Then they had to do several follow-up activities for their Home Learning: Spelling, Matching words and pictures, Comprehension and Recording. 

Listen to Pele's recording of her reading. She is reading, 'Good For You' and her Mum is helping her out. 

Ka Pai to all those students who turned up for their first guided reading lesson in the Hangout Meet, as well as their Mums for supporting their home learning.
