Duality maps

The boys have finished their duality maps and here is a short video of them talking about them.  They really enjoyed doing these and asked every day if it was time to do their maps.

Duality Maps

We are making a duality map on Animals or Transport to see the differences between our ethnic country and New Zealand.  We have just made a start and will be working on them over the next couple of weeks.

What I like

I have been doing a learner profile on some of the children, here is some things that they like.  I also did a little one on me as well.

Literacy Time!!

We were writing about what we would cook on a bbq, sausages, steak, chops and all with tomato sauce! What would you like to cook on  a bbq?

We were learning about dinosaurs!! We even got to draw and cut one out!!!

The yellow group were building their knowledge around compound words e.g netball, playground. Can you think of any compound words?

Time to talk with Ginger

We have been learning how to be good listeners with Ginger this week.
Good listeners:
Look with their eyes
Listen with their ears
Keep Still
And are quiet when it is someone else's turn to talk.
 

Break Through 28th February Animal and Art Groups

We looked and found out how to use pastels to create patterns.

Experimented with different designs.

We went to the library to research patterns.

We drew inspiration from animal patterns and used them to create our own.
