Keeping Ourselves Safe Movies

We have been making movies of "How to keep safe crossing the road and driving."

Enjoy!!!

Igloo!

Investigating freezing temperatures is never a worry for our students! One freezing cold morning these amazing learners explored how to make an igloo with ice. Angus discovered through exploration that if you melt two ends of the ice then hold them together they freeze together again making them stick. Once he had discovered this he was able to construct an igloo with Joe and Eli. What super sleuths you are boys!

Challenging Ourselves at Maths Time

Sam and Monty has been practising writing numbers up to 100.

 Isabella has been practising writing her numbers up to 20 on the i-pad.

 These children have been working on their goals before and after numbers up to 20.

 Alex and Joe are so proud of completing the basic facts challenge board. 

Look at the lovely formation of Summer's numbers.  We can see she is proud of her work.

Retelling Stories

We have been learning to retell a story. We have to remember how the story starts, what the problem is in the story, how the story ends and all the details inbetween. Its great for thinking about sequencing, comprehension and talking about text. We take turns sharing our stories with a buddy then they get to tell their buddy their story. Awesome respect and listening skills developing on both sides.

These boys have been talking about treasure from this awesome big book. Great skills in taking turns, investigating language and exploring text together.

Tennis Skills

These super learners got together to play tennis. Awesome skills working together, while developing some very clever ball hitting skills. Tu meke learning.

Measuring on our own

Our investigation into understanding measurement continues. Check out the different ways we have helped each other with measurement using different things in different ways. This type of learning alongside intensive teaching has lifted our test scores really high in a very short amount of time. Well done Pod 2. Great independent learning.
