Maths Week

Well done everyone for all the awesome maths learning you did at home. We are proud of all of you and the effort you put into your learning.
Don't forget to send in your sponsorship money!

More measurement fun

We measured our feet using cubes. How many cubes do you think it took to measure our feet?
Here are some photos of some children busy measuring their feet and counting the cubes. We have made a display in Room 2 of our feet.





What am I?

We wrote some clues to describe our favourite zoo animals. Here is a video of us reading our clues. Can you guess what animals we are describing?
We have made a book out of our clues-next time you are in Room 2 pop in and have a read!


        


Measurement

We are learning how to measure things. Today we used the words tall and short. We tried to line up in order of shortest to tallest.

Maths Week

Welcome to Maths Week at Owairaka. You will have received a sheet of maths facts for your child to practise at home this week, along with a sponsorship form. Please feel free to chat with us if you are not sure what to do.

If you have time in the mornings, read the fun word problem that is posted outside Room 2 with your child, and see if they can find a way to solve the problem. Remember to come and whisper the answer in Mrs Getty's ear!

Here are some children working on their maths. They are rolling 2 dice and counting how many dots they have altogether.

Pop Pop Popcorn!

  It was a pop pop pop popcorn kind of day on Friday! First we decorated our boxes. Next we cut and folded our boxes, we had to think carefu...
