Kiwiana

We are studying culture this term. Today we looked at what things made New Zealand special and what things were unique to our awesome country. We then choose some of those things to sketch. Here are some pictures. You will also notice us working in some different places. I especially liked the kiwi ingenuity that some boys showed when setting  a spot on the back bank. Enjoy the photos :)

Meaningful learning

It is always great when the children can find meaningful uses for the learning in class. Yesterday we had two examples. Ella, Tessa and Amrit wrote an informative persuasive letter to Mrs Wilson about their care bear scheme, more info to come soon and Mira used her measurement and area skills to figure out how much grass seed she needs to improve the chicken coop. Well done guys!

This week we watched an amazing magic show that not only made us think about the tricks but also values that are important.
