Buddy Class

Room 5 had their buddy class session on Friday afternoon with Room 8. The children copied the year 5's and 6's and danced until home time. What a great end to the week. Ka Pai everyone! 

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! 

Story Writing with Miss Kingston

This morning our tamariki went outside. Together we looked around us at all the things we could do. The tamariki pointed at the grass and said it was sparkling. The children picked up the grass and felt the droplets of water, we talked about dew and when it forms. We saw the flowers in the garden bed. Our learners used their senses of smell, sight and touch to examine the flowers and the grass. Here are some stories that the children wrote.  
By Miss Kingston.
