Room 3 2017

Room 3 Great work at reading rotation time-we are learning to move to our different activities quickly and quietly. We have all enjoyed learning about some of the very special things which make up our family history   as part of our inquiry  into changes over time and why the past is important. Congratulations to our award winners.These awards are presented at our full school assemblies. Well done-keep up the  good work!

We had a great trip to Wellington on Tuesday to see three shows-it was fun! Here we are having our lunch outside Te Papa and being entertained !! In Maths we are learning to ; Sort,compare and classify 2D and 3D objects. Name 2 D shapes. Describe shape attributes including corners and sides. Fabulous published stories. Such great,careful work linked to our inquiry into our family history and how that has changed over time. Some of us did these wonderful paintings  of our grandmothers. We also wrote some stories to go with them -pop into Room 3 and have a look.

Life in Room 3 At Circle Time we are learning to: Speak   in a strong, clear voice when it is our turn. Listen carefully to our classmates and stay focussed on what is happening in the circle. Look at the person who is speaking. Think about what our classmates are saying and formulate a question. Sit with our legs and arms folded.   Circle time is a very important part of the school day. It gives all students an opportunity to contribute verbally in a safe and supportive environment-it teaches valuable listening skills  and respect for classmates opinions. It is the time where, as a class,we can sit together and talk about important things and explore feelings.   We are loving visiting Letterland every day.   G reat work at our tables and learning correct pencil grip.  L earning to write the numerals first to 10 and then to 20-correct shape first-size second. We are learning about our friends in Room 3 and also abou
