Green Day




In our school Pepeha it talks about Nga Ringa Awhina. We know Nga Ringa is our shelter.

 One of our Green Day activities was to get to know the meaning of our Pepeha in a bit more detail, We spent some time outside sketching Nga Ringa. There was some fabulous sketching Room 10- you looked carefully at the special features on the building.

Green Day was lots of fun and we really enjoyed the special Green Day assembly by Room 11 and Room 7!

Measurement

We have been learning how to measure length. We started off by measuring different things around the classroom. We used cubes and sticks to see how long things were. 

We can use the words tallest and shortest when talking about measurement. Who do you think is the tallest in this picture? Who is the shortest? We also lined our class up in order of shortest to tallest.

We have been learning to measure using a ruler. We have measured our hands and feet in Centimetres. We know the short way of writing centimetres is cm

End of term fun

We thought about our school wide focus of making the world a better place and we decided that we could use up the left over oranges in our fruit bowl and make some orange cupcakes. We all had a turn at either measuring, mixing, juicing, zesting, beating and finally eating!! Our orange cupcakes were yummy.

GREEN WEEK

During Green Week, we looked at our School Care Code. We then thought about what we could do to help follow our Code. We know that by making a promise, we are helping to look after our school environment.

 Here are some of our 'promises'.



Zion-Li and Lita got very creative during Green Week. They decided to make some clothes out of plastic bags! Groovy Girls!!

MATARIKI

We celebrated Matariki- each class decorated their own Pou Toti(stilts)  and  shared them in our special Matariki assembly. Dekoyvn and Arden presented Room 10's Pou Toti. We are looking forward to having fun using these stilts during break times. We also sat together to share some steamed pudding that was cooked with the hangi.
It was delicious.

Autumn Leaves

We had to look carefully at the leaves we had collected.

We looked carefully at the shape of the leaf. 

We also looked at the colour of each leaf.

We call this observational drawing because we are drawing what we see.
