Our wondeful writing
Room 1 has a wall of wonderful poems about Autumn leaves. We wrote these using our senses after we had explored the leaves around the school and watched, listened, smelt and felt them.
Here is some of the great writing we achieved!
Anzac Day - Why is it so special to New Zealanders?
In Room 1 we have been learning about the special place ANZAC day has in our lives 100 years on.
We learnt that a lot of our great grandads and great grandmas watched as their fathers went away to a war on the other side of the world. many didn't come home again. Thank you to all our families that helped us uncover some wonderful family history.

We found out about the story of the Poppy and why it has become the symbol of the Anzacs.

We used the iconic symbol of Anzac Day a poppy to recreate a tribute to our soldiers. We learnt to add layers of paint to create depth and to add an outline to make an image bold.
Here are some examples of what we created... for more come into Room 1 for a viewing!

Look what Ererangi found for us!
Ererangi and her grandmother found this wonderful birds nest for us to investigate at news time! We had lots of discussion about what to do if you find a birds nest and what they are made of. Thank you for bringing this in Ererangi!

Our Class Photo
Today Mrs Gribben helped us take a class photo so we could put it in our classroom and on the blog. Gee, the sun got in all our eyes!
Monarch Butterflies come to School
Today Bella brought a Monarch Butterfly to school to share with the class. Her Nana held it while we took a photo. It's feet tickled our palms as it walked across it.
Relationships
Since we were all new to Room 1. We created an amazing web of relationships to learn everyone's name.
You can see how much fun it was!
We got very entangled in the activity.
