Week 9

What another great week we have had in Kowhai!

We have used the TV this week we watch a 

youtube clip on Jellyfish. 

After this we wrote cinquain poems on jellyfish and made a small jellyfish to hang with our poems.

Our balloons are finished and hang with pride from the rafters in Kowhai.  Great job!

Thank you to Mrs Miller who completed the balloons with the children of Kowhai.

This week we also cooked some chocolate cupcakes topped with sprinkles and chocolate hail  to share with each other.

YUM!

Week 8

Statistics

This week we have started working on the maths strand: Statistics.

Our bar graph illustrates what fruit the children in Kowhai like.

World Down Syndrome Day

In Kowhai we have a very special little girl Hanna.  To help her celebrate Down Syndrome Day we all wore colourful socks.

Also in Kowhai we wrote 

Sock Haiku Poems

and decorated our own pair of socks 

in support of Hanna.

Well done Kowhai!

What will next week bring!

Healthy Kai

Our topic 'Healthy Kai' is coming to an end, so on Friday we made fruit smoothies.

YUMMY!!

We had banana, apple, mango, oranges, blueberries, raspberries, peaches and yoghurt and soy milk

We have also been using the iPad to record facts we have learnt about some vegetables.

Week 6

Learning Is ......

This week we have been discussing what learning is to us!

Here we are in our graduating hats thinking about what learning is.

Healthy Kai this week was using our newly learnt knowledge to make an

informative poster.

We did this in pairs.

Art

We have paper mache balloons hanging in the classroom.

I wonder what we are making!

Fruit or Vegetable

 

Carrots are good for your skin and your eyes!  

I need to eat more carrots.

Art time

Balloons, paper, glue and children! Lots of fun, great team work.

Working so well!
Keep watching our blogs for the final piece of art work!  😀
