Week 7

This week we have a special visitor in our room. Miss Thorensen is visiting us from Palmerston North Teachers College. It will be so great to have another teacher in the classroom.

Thank you to all of you who have returned both your t-ball notice and also your trip notice for our walk around Taradale. T-ball will begin this Wednesday from 3.10 - 3.45. It is a fun relaxed way for the children to take part in an afterschool activity.

Our walk around Taradale, including a visit to the Taradale library will be a great way for us to see first hand some of the services/shops available in Taradale - all part of our  "You, Me, We" topic.

Danika, Tai and Cooper enjoyed planting and watering
the seeds.



Iriaka tried blueberries.



J.E.T. was fun last Friday - along with many other activities, we tasted some fruits and planted the seeds that Olivia's dad kindly gave us along with the seed raising pots. We will watch these seeds grow then transfer them into our junior school garden.

This week our sound of the week is "Tt"
Word of the week is  "then"
Our maths focus will be sequencing a range of numbers that don't follow in order. eg 12, 24, 74, 34, 23.

Dylan did some great discovering,
he explored about not just how to make the train stop and start, but also
why the leaver worked.

We have just completed some amazing art ( that we started with Mrs Harris) about being unique. If you get a chance pop in to see it. I'll add some to the blog next week.
