Messages to Christchurch

We are sending messages and letters to Christchurch. We made cards for the children in Christchurch because we wanted to make them happy. Our letters are going in boxes with food in them on an Air New Zealand airplane.

We hope they like our letters!

Apple from the Apple Tree

This was our poem of the week. We are learning to make our reading sound like talking and to use expression. We had to practice using expression and make up actions to make our poem more interesting.

We think we can get better by not shouting, making our actions bigger and by all talking at the same speed.

Bolt went to Waikanae

What an exciting time Bolt had with Gracie over the weekend. He traveled with her family for a holiday in Waikanae. He even got to visit the beach. How exciting!!

Bolt at Charlotte's

Bolt is relaxing at home with Charlotte.

Matthew's Handwriting

This is Matthew's handwriting. He wrote it very carefully. He concentrated on his work and didn't rush. Matthew has written the letters in his name correctly which is what we were learning to do.

Well done Matthew!

Bolt our class pet

This is Bolt, our class pet. He is really fluffy and he has a black nose. We get to take Bolt home and take pictures together with him. If you are good at listening to the teacher, respecting each other and follow the instructions you might get a turn to take Bolt home.

We hope everyone gets a turn to take Bolt home. So far Vincent and Lachlan have taken Bolt home. I wonder, who will have a turn tonight.

Where we went in the holidays

We wanted to find out where we went on our Christmas holiday. We went outside and sat on the grid to make our bar graph.

The most people went to the beach.
People staying at home was the second most.
The same about of people stayed home as the people who went to the river.
One person went to Hawkes Bay, Rotorua, a friends house and a hotel.

Treaty of Waitangi

When the Treaty of Waitangi was made they got mixed up with the English and Maori. They don't say the same thing. People are confused about which treaty to follow.

We were making words that we different. We had a code that we had to find out what it says. The codes did not say the same thing. This is like the Treaty of Waitangi.

We are making our own class treaty. We will tell you more about it soon.

The Incredible Favourite Colours

We made a graph showing our favourite colours. The most favourite colours are green and pink. Green and pink have got the most blocks. They each had 7. The least amount of people liked black, brown, white, yellow and blue. Only two people liked orange.
