Miss H in Rotorua

Hello Room 2

I had a great flight up to Rotorua yesterday and I took some photos from the plane window. I hope you are having a great time with Mrs Chambers and you are looking after her.

My lessons are going well and I am learning some exciting things to show you when I come back to school next week.

Have a great day.

Miss H

Our favourite lessons

Today we did some of our favourite lessons. We like swimming the best, today we all tried things that we need to learn to do in the water. Daniel had to pick up a stone from the bottom of the pool, Georgia had to blow bubbles under water. We all tried really hard.
We also did some Maths today, we like Maths. We like doing the Maths games on the computer the best.

Wednesday's story time

Today we listened to the rest of the story called The Enormous Crocodile. It was about a crocodile wanting to eat six children and all his tricks to catch them. One of his tricks was to be a see- saw, another was to be a coconut tree. He also tried to look like a picnic table by hiding under the table, he put a bunch of flowers from all the other tables on his table so the children would come and sit at his table.
He didn't catch any children because all the animals who knew his plans stopped him by telling the children. At the end of the story the elephant swung the enormous crocodile around and around and then he let him go. The crocodile went flying up into space and hit the sun.
We thought this story was funny because the crocodile didn't get to eat the children. We liked looking at the pictures in the book.

Jump Jam

Today was our first day back at Jump Jam. We did Crazy Frog, the Indian song and 5,6,7,8.
We like Jump Jam because we get fitness and there's lots of songs. We do Jump Jam every Tuesday and Thursday. Sue comes in to take us for Jump Jam. On Thursday we are going to learn some new songs.

Fitness

We divided into 5 groups. The leaders got a ball so we could play tunnel ball. We played under over, change ends tunnel ball and change ends under over. It's fun playing because the person at the back gets to run and then be at the front. We learn to work together and makes friends with the people in our team.

Smart Chute

We played a game of smart chute. It was fun. When we put a card in the top, it goes down and turns over. The picture turns over and shows us the letter it begins with.

We play this game at reading time.

Our first day back at school

We are Room 2 at Dunsandel School. We are 5 & 6 year olds. Today we did some painmting with our hands and our feet. We made patterns with them. We found out that the lines on our hands and our feet are different from everybody elses.

We learnewd about other people and how to make friends.

We took photos and played tunnel ball in the hall.
