Our wild thing review

After tasting our smoothies- we finished our week (six) evaluating the wild characters we've met this term. Today we met perhaps our wildest- Houmea - the fierce and greedy woman. A character from a Maori legend. Check out our evaluating webchart - we remembered lots!!

Week six-was all about vegetables. We tried lots of different smoothies we designed and made.
the most unusual included black jelly beans. Look out for our wall display and our movie which are in the process of being made.

Unfortunately swimming was cancelled on Friday- the word is our sessions will be made up in the last week of this term!!

Our First Five Weeks

Our fifth week of term 3:
Great news-ultranet is up and running-we can all log in again!!!
We had swimming this week (sadly Thursday was cancelled due to bad weather), we look forward to sharing our swimming movie at the end of next week.
This week our shared book was the all time favourite, Green eggs and ham.
Check out our movies click on the photo link below and find them in the media gallery.

                                 
Our fourth week we read the Nickle Nackle tree.
We finished the week with making our birds-these birds are our signing of our treaty.
Our Nickle Nackle tree symbolises our classroom and we have decided on 5 rules.
 Here is our Nickle Nackle tree....

Our third week:
-This week we are learning to listen - to instructions, the facts, the details.
-We began scripture on Tuesday with Mr Sparrow (until Mrs Cripps comes back in a month)
-We hope you enjoyed your valentines cards we made you on Valentines day.
We listened and worked with the story Badjelly the witch. We finished the week making sense of who was the wickest character of all. Click on the photo link to see and hear our opinions via our movie.....

                           
NB: Our pieces of writing didn't last on this window-we problem solved and put them on and around our blue door.
