It's Teddy Bear Week

We have had special visitors this week - our teddies!!

We went down to the bush to see how cool it is! Rooms 7 and 14 have done an amazing job at making it into a lovely place to visit. 

Look at how great it is! 

We used our teddies in maths for some measurement. Who's was the biggest?

Who's teddy was the smallest? 

The rain finally cleared up for us to have a teddy bears picnic with some hot chips! 

Then we got creative! Miss a Eyre gave us free reign in the classroom to make two bear huts. Look at us go! 

There were even pretend candles made of mobile and marbles. Great Green Hat thinking! 

We look forward to next week when we look at the book 'Boss for a Week' by Libby Handy. 

Working backwards

It's been a while since the last blog post, taku aroha - apologies!

But here we all are, looking spectacularly wacky for Wacky Hair Day.

What a beautiful hairstyle your teacher has. 

And here are a few highlights from Athletics which I was sorry to miss as I had Jury Duty. It sounded like an extremely successful morning though, with lots of fun had by all. 

Sack race. I heard the sack was almost bigger than Heavenly!

Everyone loved the parachute.

We're pretty good at the high jump now. 

And look how far we can jump in the long jump.

We steadily improved in our javelin technique over our practises. 

In Ruma Ono we sometimes get special manuhiri (visitors) from other classes who share some of their learning with us. Here are Ava, Cheyanne and Zac from Room 11 telling us about their mini-me's. 

Here is our funny spring photo to complete our seasons photos for the year. How has our class changed since summer?

Here was another special visitor - a robot! Well, it was Amelia, Felix's sister who is making a very creative project. 

Music-Video Making

Today we created a soundtrack for our music video.  First we made the video of our photos and minecraft stadium pictures, then we made our music tracks.

Mr McLay helped us put them together. Here are some of our music videos
