Miss Brown's Shining Stars: March 2015

Tuesday, 24 March 2015

One of the computers in Room 2 had a funny screen so we asked Mr Mac if he could help us fix it.

We learnt that a computer has a hard-drive and a monitor.

He put the hard drive on to a new monitor and it worked!

Thanks Mr Mac for helping us fix the computer and teaching us about how computers work.

This week Room 2 was the winning class for Mathletics at Hinuera School!

Everyone in Room 2 got their certificates.

Well done to Jennifer, Lachlan, Aiden and Corey who got silver certificates, and Emily for getting her very first mathletics certificate!

We love going to the library and looking at all the wonderful books.

Room 2 go to the library on Fridays.

In the library we are learning to choose a book we would like to look at. We can also find some words that we know in books.

We like to look at books with a friend.

We found a book with a monarch butterfly in.

At the end of our library time we like to listen to a story.

What kind of books do you like to read?

We are practicing writing our names and are learning to use correct letter formation.

Look at our great efforts!

As part of our "Creepy Crawlies' topic we are focusing on the life cycle of a butterfly.

Today we went on a hunt to find caterpillars to observe what we could notice and to look at changes that we will start to see.

Here are some photos of the caterpillars that we found:

Jennifer has been working hard in her writing.

She is learning to listen to sounds in words and use finger spaces between words.

Look at the wonderful writing that Jennifer did all by herself...

I went to my Granny and Grandad's. We played office. We kept the paper and I had my computer.

Ka Mau te Wehi Jenni! Keep up the outstanding effort.

This week lots of people in Room 2 got their first Mathletics certificate.

We worked very hard to do lots of number activities to get these.

Congratulations to Logan who got over 5000 points!

Ka mau te wehi Room 2!
