We hope you managed to get outside and enjoy the fabulous weather in the weekend. On my walk around Cornwall Park I saw lots of baby lambs.

Today we will practise saying the number that comes before.

Let's begin by counting backwards from 20-can you read the numbers below?

10  9    8    7    6    5    4    3    2   1   0

Can you say the number that comes before-remember before means backwards

Kei te pehea koutou katoa-how are you all?

We are so impressed with all you wonderful learning this week and it has been fun learning together during our Google Meets.

Just a reminder that we won't see you today as Mrs Waddington and Philippa will be on their phonics course-we are doing some learning on line too!

Here are a few things you might like to do today and over the weekend.

Have fun!

It's Friday, so that means it's time for the Chicken Dance-have fun teaching your whanau.

Phonics

Take a walk around your garden or neighbourhood, and while you are out noticing things, see if you can say the beginning sound.

On my walk I might notice a tree ..... t-t-t-tree

I might pass a car......c-c-c-car

I hope to see a blossom.........b-b-b-blossom

See how many beginning sounds you can say for the things that you see.

We have been working hard on tally marks this week. Collect some sticks from outside and use them to make tally marks. Send me a photo showing the number you have made.

Finally, while you are out and about on your walk, collect some natures treasure and use it to write your name. Send me a photo of your creation!

Here are some examples of what you could use.

Here are a couple of website you may like to look at. There are a lot of learning ideas on them, however, you may need to spend some time finding activities that suit you and your family.

Auckland Museum

Auckland Zoo-kids

Have a wonderful weekend and we are looking forward to getting some photos of your tally marks and names.

Remember to be kind, and we look forward to seeing you all on Monday.

Amara has been practising her writing.......

 Amara has done some fabulous writing. She has used our word of the week in a sentence.

We can see Amara has begun with a capital letter, has finger spaces between words, and has ended her sentence with a full stop.

Awesome writing Amara!

We love it!

Thank you for sharing your writing with us.

Here is a counting song-it is about doubles!

Yesterday during our Google meet we practised using tally marks for counting the shapes.

Here is another counting sheet using tally marks. You must count how many of each colour chameleon there are, and then show that number in tally marks.

You can print the sheet out if you like, otherwise just use coloured pencils on your paper for each colour.

Have fun!

Which colour had the most chameleons?

Which colour had the least chameleons?

We would love to see some photos of either your tally marks or your sentences, or you might like to send us a photo of a character from today's story 'Lost and Found'.

Please send photos through to
