Matariki

We have been learning about Matariki. We learnt the names of the Matariki stars and how and why Matariki is celebrated. We listened to some Matariki stories and created our own wishing stars.

Pirate Polly

Room One have been reading a book called Pirate Polly. After we finished reading the book we talked about where Pirate Polly may have gone and what she might have done next. Then we wrote a story about Pirate Polly's next adventure.

Monster Madness

We decided to combine writing and art this week. We created monster pictures using dye and vivid and wrote stories about our monsters.

Measuring, sequencing and pattern making

Here are some pictures of the maths Room One have been enjoying during term 2.

Sir Edmund Hillary

Our topic study this term has been about New Zealand explorers and adventurers. We have studied Jean Batten, Sir Edmund Hillary and Sir Peter Blake. We listened to their stories and talked about how they showed resilience and perseverance. 

Bubbles

We have been reading a book called 'Bubble Trouble" for our class shared reading. 

We imagined we got caught in the crocodile's bubble and floated up into the sky. We wondered what we would see.
