Welcome and Farewell!

This week in Room 4 we welcomed a new student - Esme and said goodbye to another student - Saidziyo. It's always sad to say bye to a special person in our class, we will miss you Saidziyo! It is also great to have you join us Esme.

Buddy Reading

This afternoon Room 2 visited us and we did some buddy reading. We enjoyed sharing some stories with Room 2 and spending time with our buddy.

ANZAC Writing

This week we wrote some great stories about ANZAC Day in Room 4. I was really impressed with how students were able to write a recount of their own experiences mixed with some facts about ANZAC. Here are some of our stories to share with you. Check out all the other stories on our writing wall in Room 4.

 

  

 

 

Amazing Art!

Hi everyone!
I hope you've all had a great holiday and are looking forward to coming back to school. I've been in at school getting ready for the term and today I put our Hungry Caterpillars up on the wall.

Don't they look awesome? What do you think?
Looking forward to seeing you all on Monday!

Kei te pehea koe?

We enjoy practising our Te Reo Maori in Room 4. Here's a video we made of us asking each other how we are feeling.

Amazing Writers

Welcome to the blog for 2015! We have made a great start to the year in Room 4 and have been working hard.

I have been really impressed with our writing in Room 4. We have been writing about our experiences and learning what makes a good recount. Our Writing Wall has got some awesome published recounts on it, make sure you come and check them out!

Can you tell everyone the parts of a recount?

i Pads

We love the new i Pads in our class! We have been busy practising how to use them and trying all the apps out. Here's some photos of us using the i Pads as part of our literacy task board.

What is your favourite activity on the i Pads?
