In room 9 we have been creating our own Matariki myths. We could either make it as a movie or a book. Some others used the paint app on the computers to make pictures for their books.
Here's one of our videos we hope you enjoy them.

Lachie created a play for homework. We hope you like the children's performance of Lachie's play.

Self Portraits

This week we learnt how to draw a face by visualising it into three thirds. The top third is your forehead and eyes, the middle third is your nose and upper mouth and the bottom third is your lips and chin. It was fun learning to draw our self-portrait. We hope you like our pictures.

Family Friday Week 5

Today it was Family Friday but on a Thursday.

It was so much fun! Mr McGillivray came in and talked about iron sand and some other sands called

PC, RAW and White sand but Mr McGillivray got the white sand out of the sand pit. It was fun learning about the iron in the sand and using magnets. He then dressed some children up in a special uniform that protect the people that work in extreme temperatures to make the iron and steel. Thanks for coming in Dad.

Plays

On Friday's we do cool, exciting plays. It helps us practise reading out loud, using expression, working as a team and performing in front of an audience plus we all love, love, love acting.

Shrove Tuesday

On Tuesday we made yummy pancakes and waffles. We mixed the ingredients and Mrs Suggate cooked it. We learnt about Shrove Tuesday and ash Wednesday. When the food was ready we ate them all up. The pancakes and waffles were super duper yummy.

Reading Area

In Room 9 we have a fantastic area that encourages us to read. We have cushions, a couch, a chair and a bath. You're probably thinking bath? But it's not a bath with water, Mrs Suggate got an old bath and filled it with a duvet and cushions and it's actually a really comfy place to read.
