Welcome to our classroom blog, especially if this is your first visit. Through this medium my aim is to let parents and whanau know a little more about our activities in Ngaio class every week through my photo record. Apologies if this week is a little brief, I got hit with a vomiting bug and our school policy is 48 hours away after such a sickness so I missed your wee children on Thursday and Friday! Enjoy!
 |
| New children, new term, welcome to you all! |
 |
| Monday and Thursday mornings we have show and tell sharing time on the mat, a great opportunity to make new friends and find out about each others' interests. |
 |
| Oliver left his toy at home so drew it for us. |
 |
| "What do you think of my fire truck? Neat!" |
 |
| Riley J has completed his first sticker chart, ka pai, Riley! |
 |
| So has Noah! Ko koe taku toa! |
 |
| Monday saw the first of our tennis coaching opportunities... |
 |
| Welcome everyone! |
 |
| We are fortunate to have children from Room 10 helping us learn different maths games too. |
 |
| Noah came on his first school visit from Kindy. He loves it here. |
 |
| Caitlyn was tasked with writing all the words in the classroom she could read, she made a super list and could have done more had time allowed. Great reading and writing, Caitlyn! |
 |
| We are exploring volume and capacity in the sandpit and showing full/empty/ half full/ nearly full/ nearly empty etc. |
 |
| Riley loved writing in the sand with his rake - can you see the letters he is making? |
 |
| More tennis with Suzanne. |
 |
| Working together, playing 'squash the bug!' |
 |
| Tyler and Riley are making friends. |
 |
| Caitlyn has filled her chart too! Must make some more. |
 |
| Maddison came visiting with her mum and Eva loved reading the alphabet to her - Eva was on a visit as well. |
 |
Discovery time this week we were learning the skill of persisting. Here you can see children making junk models for themselves, helping each other when they need support.
|
 |
| One of the activities was making a head from paper plates -some are in the purple corner for you to enjoy, some came home! |
 |
| Another activity was colouring in with care - a real art form.This developed into a competition and the winners were Miela, Mieka and Tahlia. |
 |
| Leo had great fun with the K-Nex! |
 |
| More comparisons of capacity - based on the Three Bears - which bowl holds most, Mummy, Daddy or Baby bear? How could you check this out? |
 |
Time to eat the rice bubbles...!
