Week 3 Term 1

This week we have been learning some new ways of remembering the number sequence to 10. We played bingo in pairs and wrote numbers to 10 in chalk, some of us even carried on to 20...well done!




In literacy we have been exploring the books on offer in our class reading corner and also practising the 'Pink Pig' poem that we learnt as part of our work on the sound 'p'. Check it out on the video below.


We have been writing using playdough, little white boards and the ipad as well as in our draft writing books.


 
 Look out for some of our spider stories that we wrote to accompany these 8 legged creepy crawlies. You can check out our individual spiders and stories on our Kidzstuff blog using the link on this page.
In ICT we have been learning how to use the digital camera including portrait shots, head shots and macro shots. The following pictures were all taken by the children.

    Hello Room 10. I am Fin's Opa. I am here in Pukekohe with Fin's Nana. Hello Fin.

    It is so nice to see and read about what you are all learning. I especially like the ICT stuff because that is what I am using now to communicate with you all. Because we live so far away, I also use ICT to talk with Fin when he is at home his home in Nelson.

    I wonder how many other children have grandparents that live a long way away?

    Wow you guys have been so busy. I love the art work going up in Room 10. I had so much fun making hand prints and mixing colours with you all on Friday. It was messy but very cool!
