Week two, term three, 2014.

We are learning about mass and deciding which animals are heavy and which are light.

Sharing time - lots to talk about!

Ready to dance with 'Stepping Out'.

Chloe and Alissa enjoying Chloe's animals.

music bingo - Thea-Jane is teaching Mason and Spencer whilst Harrison checks their ideas.

We ordered ourselves from lightest to heaviest.

Great concentration in the hall ready to move in Hip Hop style.

Mirrors (I am trying you upload a Photopeach slide show to go with this - watch the Blog for that!).

Alissa loved trying out Hamish's racing car with a remote controller.

Jaydyn playing claves.

Spencer and a single tone wood block (percussion is our focus in Music this term).

Max made a heavy bag and Mason made up a light one.

Alisssa loves music too.

Comparing weight.

During Discovery time we added to our class blanket and every child wrote their name on a piece of fluffy fabric in vivid - next week I will sew it together.

Sharing e-learning on the mat.

Our letter this week is 'A' we made apple finger dancers.

K-Nex during Discovery - lots of great sharing today.

Hand prints for our books "All About Me!".

We are so fortunate to have Zach Rampton in our class - his Dad, Tony , competed in the Commonwealth Games in 2006 and won a silver medal with the NZ basketball team. he spoke at assembly this week and showed some of his special shirts. he also competed in the Olympic Games in Athens and told us all stories about the life in the 'Games Village' where food is free!

This is Tony Rampton.

Mason and Spencer made a jetpack!

Jackson made a creature of his own design too.

Arrayah designed BeyBlades and shared them out with the other children - they are brilliant and spin really well on the table top.

Different designs worked well too!

Chloe and Rasharna enjoyed colouring in at Discovery Time.

Max made a 'Skylander' called "Rickrick" and gave one to Thea-Jane to play with.

On Wednesday it was our turn to share in Junior Assembly. Here we are rehearsing for this event. We showed different pages from the books we are busy making - they should be completed next week I hope!
