Miss Brown's Shining Stars

Thursday, 1 September 2016

Look at what we were doing in music time today. We had lots of fun using the drums!

We are learning to read and write lots of sight words.

In writing time we are encouraged to find the words that we know and write them in our stories.

Hamish worked hard with this today.

Here he is re-reading his writing:

'I can see Dad and Mum'

Today Tayla wrote a super story!

She is learning to sound out and stretch words and is also learning to use finger spaces in her writing.

Here is her story:

'I have a baby lamb and it was called Rosemary. The baby lamb was fluffy and it was cute. I am going to bring it to Ag Day'

For maths we have been learning about Geometry - Shape.

Today we were exploring shapes. We named shapes, did some shape sorting and looked at how many sides and corners different shapes had.

We also made some shapes and some shape pictures.

This week two students in Room 2 got their very first gold certificates on Mathletics!

Ka rawe Joshua and Lachlan!

You are such mighty mathematicians!

Today some of the Chiefs players came to our school.

They talked to use about the importance of always doing our best and showing resilience.

Thanks for coming!

This week we made oobleck in class.

We had lots of fun but we all thought it felt gooey and sticky!
