Yuan - for completing stage 2/3 of his Mad Maths Minute!
​
Heitor - for working hard to listen to the teachers, and always sharing his smile and enthusiasm for school.

Today we have been talking about the ‘odd one out’. What it was that didn’t belong. Then we sorted some instruments.

Picture

After lunch R2 showed us what they have been doing for science.
They had made their own universal indicator and used it to test if things were an acid or a base.
Pink = acid, green/blue = base
When we went back into R1 we talked about the details we learnt.

Picture

We finished off our day with some music, continuing to use the instruments from maths time. Making patterns and copying them. Then we even looked at some musical notes and copied the rhythm they were making.

After reading books about filling peoples buckets, room 1 has been working hard to fill our class bucket. Children can put warm fuzzies (pom poms) in the bucket when a teacher catches them doing things like being kind, encouraging, doing the right thing, helping or others or setting a good example.

Picture

Today we filled the bucket! As a reward the class got to go outside and play a game of their choise straight after lunch. We had lots of fun playing duck, duck, goose in the shade on the grass.

Over the weekend another one of our butterflies hatched and took flight. One more chrysalis is becoming transparent and will soon be ready to hatch (hopefully this time when we can see is at school).

Tahi (our one-eyed tadpole) is fast becoming a frog!! Our froglets tail is smaller every time I look at it!

On Monday we were talking about tadpoles and the stages that they grow in. We still have some questions to answer and find out but soon we will also start learning about frogs!

Orchestra and Fireworks

In the weekend I went to 'Sparks' in Christchurch with my extended family and told Room 1 about it on Monday. Today we watched a video of one of the songs the Orchestra played as well as some of the end fireworks display. This became a prompt for our writing. The goal was to write something about both the music and the fireworks. Here is the video as well as the shots of their work!

Adding Animals

21/2/2019

0 Comments

 

We used the large foam Numicon shapes to add together different groups of animals. Putting the two shapes together and finding the shape that fit on top to find the total. You can practice these at home too with any items found around the house, eg buttons or coins, putting them into the shape of a Numicon shape to discover the total. Check by counting.

Size and Heights

Today we were talking about the size and height of objects. We put different objects from around the room into order from smallest to biggest, shortest to smallest and using different words for compairing them. We also watched and talked about the story Goldilocks and Three Bears to introduce us to these ideas.
