Writing - View From Our Classroom Window

The children in Room 4 looked at the view from our classroom windows.  They noticed many things happening and wrote about what they could see.  The children used descriptive language to describe what they saw.

Some children shared their stories at our Junior Assembly. 

Grandparents Day

Grandparents Day

What a wonderful day we had.

The grandparents came into our room.  We sang some songs, shared poems, watched a slideshow and read a story to them.  After that the children worked on a grandparents activity with the children. Then we went out to the playground and did some folk dancing.  After lunch we all went to the hall and our grandparents enjoyed some items from all the school.

We loved having the grandparents visit.

Saving Money

Evan from the ASB Bank came to talk to the children.  He told us that the children are money superheroes.
We ordered all the coins and notes from the smallest to the biggest.  We discussed needs and wants.  The children learned about speed to your needs and wait for your wants.  Evan gave the children a wristband that said those words.

It was fantastic to see the whole school having the opportunity to be on stage during some part of the show.
Room 4 felt like stars!!
Here are some photos to enjoy.

Assembly Item

The children in Room 4 shared some facts about volcanoes and then showed their creative art work.  They were very excited to speak to a larger audience.

Making a Volcano

WOW!!!  We made our own volcano.
We watched the lava coming out of the top and running down the sides.
Even though it wasn't a real volcano, it looked so exciting.
Enjoy the photos
