Neeeee Naahhhh!

We went down to the fire station today to thank the fire fighters for their visit on week one. We wrote thank you letters and drew pictures to thank the guys and girls for all the amazing work they do.                                                                    .

 Dear fire fighters

Thank you for coming to our school. I liked the fire truck. I liked it when the hose sprayed air on us. 

From Lewis

 We may have walked down but we got a fun ride  back. Wow what a great surprise that was! Thanks Kumeu Fire Fighters. You are fantastic!                        

Jolly hockey sticks!

Exploring animal habitats and yummy home baking

 

               Thanks Tracy for all your info about the gannets.

Gannets and a sneaky seal too! Can you spot it? Look closely for a tiny dot . That will be the seal!

How do we find out what we want to find out?

 We used the iPad to google and look on You tube for child friendly sites that teach us about what animals eat. We then shared our findings with the rest of the class.

Our research on 'You tube' allowed us to find great child friendly documentaries about animal diets.

 This group were keen to find out about how animals move. We then sorted and classified the information we gathered.

This group researched animal habitats. We looked at where animals live and how animal bodies change to adapt to environments. Drawing, planning and presenting their findings to the class.

Look how much we have grown!!!

We discussed MRS GREN and what our plants need to grow successfully. The little pots in class were no longer big enough for our beans to grow. Room 1 searched the school for the best environment to nuture our beans. So we planted in the community garden.

 Sun! Seedlings! Smiles! One day beans for lunch!
