Mini water polo session


Today we practised dropping like turtles and lining up out on the grass.

Xavier went to China and played lots of games. "The milk in China is sweet", he said.

play, walk, look, eat, shout, climb, dance, blow, splash, swim, run

Swimming

Day one in the pool


The wheels on the bus

Room 12 loved riding on the bus with their Room 4 buddies.
We started swimming today.

Clock game

Room 12 enjoyed making their own clocks yesterday. Today they played a board game where they had to read 'digital time' from the board, and then show that time on their clock.

I like to walk.               Yesterday I walked.
I like to dance.              I danced last night.
The goose might hiss.   It hissed at Nicola.
Let's pat the pig.                      We patted the pig last week.

Swimming buddies

Mrs Scott and the children from Room 4 came to visit us yesterday. We will go on the bus together next week to Wharenui swimming pool. We had fun with chalk.


 We drew the bus, the swimming pool and wrote our names.

Cultural day photostory

Cultural Day

Look at our beautiful Cultural clothes. We made hearts to show half our heart was with Christchurch, and the other half was with our country of heritage.

Time

Here is Room 12 exploring our outside clock
  Our clock needed a face which we drew with chalk.
We needed the numbers from 1 -12. 12 is at the top and 6 is at the bottom.
 We needed a long hand (the hour hand) and a short hand (the minute hand).

We took turns to move the hands to show the time.
When the long hand points up to the 12, it's something o'clock. This clock shows 7 o'clock.

Taking turns

We have been learning to take turns.
 Micky and Umi lined up to wait for their turn with the moon hoppers.
 Ezekiel, Dylan and Tim took turns with the puppets in the puppet theatre.


 Gabby and Ben took turns looking at the treasures at the talking table.
 The gardeners took turns with the watering can to water our newly planted seeds.
 Amelia and Cindy took turns with the musical instruments.

 Umi and Micky took turns when they were playing the spotty dog maths game.
Ka pai tamariki ma! Taking turns is a safe and friendly way to learn and play!

Room 12's favourite Jump Jam song

The wrinkly writer wriggled and wriggled.

Luca got a new, green bey-blade on Saturday.

We are learning about adjectives.
Adjectives are describing words that tell us what something is like.
