Today Charlotte, Adele and Joseph made movies using our ipads. They had to edit out the bits they didn't need to tell their story.
They observed children at Discovery Time being A+ Learners by being accepting and cooperative. We read a story about Dimitre's lunch and tried new things too. Some of us made sandwiches with feta cheese. Watch the movies to find out what else we did.

Last week we learnt about how the Greek people lived 2500 years ago. We ate Greek food, built the Parthanon and a stadium, and dressed up like they did. The Olympic Games started in Greece and we are learning about the importance of fair play in competition. Isaac and Adele are dressed as Greek people.

To Mrs Rose

 In the holidays I went to Lake Tekapo. We went snow tubing and I went Ice Skating with my dad. Ice skating was tricky. I fell over lots. But it was fun. Here is a photo of me Ice Skating.

The Bug Walk

We are clearing the forest behind the classrooms to make a walkway. We want to be able to see bugs and make homes for little creatures. If we look after the environment animals will live there. Time is running out for some animals and we don't want any more animals to become endangered.
We dragged all the dead branches to the heap for Craig to burn. We swept and cleared a pathway but there is still a lot more to do. Craig is going to help us make a wooden edge for the path. Then we can walk along the path without disturbing the habitat for all the creatures living there.

We will make signs to show people the way, and what to look for.

Snow Babble

Adele made this fotobabble at home yesterday and emailed it to school. Hi Mrs Rose I have made a fotobabble about snow for you Love Adele

Learning Sign Language

We are learning sign language because Brooke is deaf and we can talk to her using signs. We know the first sound of our name and we can read some stories that use signs we know. Brooke likes animals and music. On YouTube there is the alphabet done in New Zealand sign language. Sign language is different in every country. If you go to live in another country deaf people have to learn a new language too.

Addison's Fotobabble About Dinosaurs

Addison made this fotobabble this morning. She took a photo and drew all over herself to look like a dinosaur. She was a little nervous at first when she was speaking into the microphone, but just listen to discover her understanding of why dinosaurs are extinct now.

Benjamin's first Fotobabble

This is Benjamin's first Fotobabble. He took a photo and made himself into an endangered animal. Listen to him talking about it to find out what the animal is.
Can you guess where he went to learn about Gorillas? You might find a clue further down on this blog.
