Writing blasts

For our writing blasts this term the school is doing persuasive writing.  This is much more difficult than it sounds for 5 and 6 year olds, but we were super impressed with their efforts.
We were looking at whether Goldilocks should of gone in to the Three's Bears house.  The students had to write their reasoning as to why/why not.
Here is a few samples of what we did:




Mud, mud, mud!

Check out these cool photos Miss Hamlin took of the students over in the forest last Thursday!  Their squeals of delight could be heard across the field all afternoon!
The students are relishing the chance to get out of the classroom in the afternoon, after their formal learning has been completed, and explore the natural environment.

Kapahaka practise in the hall

Photos



After we have slogged our way through reading, writing and maths we like to have some down time and let the creative juices flow.  Here are some photos of our latest activities.  I especially love the Teddy Bear Hotel, also referred to as the Teddy Day Spa!! Oh la la, how fancy are our teddies!

Zebras



We made these cool zebras with Mrs Herman last week when it was wet and miserable outside!
