Week 6, Term 2

As a reward for our outstanding behaviour in the playground every other Friday we have 'Privilege Time'. This is an extra 15 minutes free play. This week it was too wet to go outside so we made a list of the things we would like to do inside. Painting was top of the list!

Next week...

Our sounds will be medial vowels.
Our words will be you, your and their.
During maths time we are looking at making patterns with and within 5. You can help at home by asking your child to use their hands to show 5, show 6, show 8 and so on. Ensure they are using one hand to show 5. For example the number 8 should be one hand of 5 and one hand of 3 rather than two hands of 4.
The children are thoroughly enjoying our Matariki rotations. Last week they were in Renwick 2 learning Maori games including poi, rakau sticks. Dianne was most impressed with their catching skills so our hard work is paying off! Next week they will be going to Room 12A for making flax flowers. Thanks again to all the parents helping out with the art and craft sessions.
Have a happy and safe week!
