Writing about Shaving Cream

Mrs Jones put a small blob of shaving cream in our hands...

Junior Assembly

This morning we went to junior assembly. We enjoyed getting certificates,  singing and getting our wonder weka awards.

Rich Maths Activity Time!

This afternoon the children in Te Ope Rua Raki have been working on Rich Mathematical tasks! They each had a jar and some lollies. The children had to place a set of lollies in the jar and leave some out. Then they wrote their number story.
Here are our Emergent Maths learners trying really hard to complete this task!

Playground Maths

Today we went out into the playground for our Maths. We were showing Mrs Jones what "Positional Language" we knew.

Tessellations

Today Mrs Jones' Maths groups made tessellations.
We used shapes and put them together on the floor with no gaps - just like putting tiles on the bathroom floor.
To make it easier we sorted the shapes into - squares, hexagons, diamonds, triangles, rectangles and half hexagons.
We think we did a great job!

Maths using positional language

Today in maths we were building towers following instructions using positional language like under, on top, beside and in the middle.

Miss Angel has come to visit us

Today Miss Angel came to watch our learning.  Miss Angel is a student teacher and will be with us for 2 weeks.  We will see her again for a longer time in October.
