Hail Day

Holy moly! This afternoon it hailed at school. The hail rumbled on our roof. We looked out the window and we saw a blanket of white hail. We were very amazed.

We walked out onto the veranda and guess there was lots of white soft ice. We picked it up and it felt very cold and slippery. Brrrr! It has been a freezing day.

Endangered Animals

We have been learning about endangered animals in New Zealand. We have learnt about the Kiwi and the Yellow Eyed Penguin and who their predators are.
We asked ourselves these questions - How can we help them? What are we going to do?
We brainstormed some ideas and decided that we would make a poster.
On Thursday some Room 6 children helped us to use comic life to make a poster. Here are some photos of our afternoon with Room 6. Thank you for your help!

Music

Room 7 is very lucky to have Mrs Smith some afternoons. We go to the hall and do some music. We have been learning to keep in time to the beat. We play lots of different intruments like a drum, shakers, tambourines and bells. We also march, walk and run to different music.

Thank you Mrs Smith for helping us with our music. We all have lots of fun and like learning new things about music.

Burger Day

Dont forget to put your order in if you would like to get a burger or a hash brown next Friday!

Yum! We cant wait for Burger Day!

Maths

This week we have been learning about giving directions. We made a picture using shapes and then gave our buddy directions on how to make it. We had to use the words - left, right, below, above, beside. We found this quite challenging but we persevered.

Well done Room 7. You are all very good at giving directions.
