Reading

Today one of our reading groups read a story called Dino in the Park.

 They got to choose who they wanted to read a story to.

Look at our wonderful reading and listening:

Ordering numbers

The red circles are learning to order numbers in maths.

We can use these to then find out what comes before and after different numbers.

Jolly Phonics - Ink on inky 'Ii'

One of our Jolly Phonics groups worked on the 'Ii' sound.

We wrote some 3 letter words that had the 'i' sound in the middle.

Do you know that the letter 'i' is a vowel.

The other vowels are a, e, o, u and sometimes y.

There is a vowel in every word.

We talked about why we are special and unique a drew a picture to show this.

These are our wonderful pictures.

Using Simple Machines

We got some new playdough toys in Room 2. 
They are simple machines!

We got to use these and then we talked about how they work.

Can you see what simple machines we are using?

Te Reo Maori - Feelings

We are learning about feelings in Te Reo Maori and how to say them.
Today we learnt about four words:

• Pai - Good
• Hiakai - Hungry
• Mauiui - Sick
• Pouri - Sad

We matched these feelings to their words. 

Kei te pehea koe? - How are you feeling?
