Clifford Wind Socks

In week 2 our big book was 'Dog'. We also read a Clifford story and then we made these Clifford wind socks. We took them outside in the wind and tried them out. You can now see them hanging up in Room 7.

Blowing in the wind!

Net and Wall PE

We have started our new PE topic on Monday with Sheree. We are learning about Net and Wall games and skills. Here we are practicing our bouncing skills over our 'nets'.

Term 3 - new environment in Room 7 & 8!

The children will be in for a surprise on Monday as during the holidays there have been builders in our school knocking out walls so we can start using Modern Learning Spaces to teach the lucky children at Aranui Primary.

I look forward to a busy term 3. In writing we will be focusing on Narratives including Fairy Tales and our POGI (Programme of Guided Inquiry) Topic is Technology based - 'Aranui Helps Out'. We will start with Geometry for Maths then continue with Number.

Our school production will also be held at the end of the term and we are looking forward to helping out making sets and being part of crowd scenes to support the older actors.

Here is a quote to keep in your minds - I will try to post a quote up most weeks that will also be in our weekly What's Up.

It's the end of term 2!

We celebrated our end of term by having a shared lunch with Room 8. We ate lots of yummy food with our friends.

We are saying goodbye to our friends Sebastian, Samantha and Masi who are moving to Room 8 next term. We wish you all the best!
