Rm 24's Google Meet

At our afternoon Google Meet PJ showed us his RC cars, Khaing-May climbed her bedroom doorway like Spider girl and Ashleigh was enjoying her chicken nuggets. We played "I Spy with my little eye..." and "Around the world" maths equations and had a lot of fun together!

Making Rewana bread

At the end of Te Wiki o Te Reo Maori Mrs Carter decided to try this new recipe for the first time at home in lockdown. Rewana bread is so tasty, it was very popular with her whanau and they enjoyed eating this kai!

Learning a new skill with Miss West

This week Miss West joined our class Google Meet and showed the children how to make a "Stop Motion" animation video using their iPads at home! Tevita filmed his Lego semi truck and trailer and used a remote control to make it move backwards, hook up to the trailer and then it moved forwards...how amazing! Well done from Mrs Carter.

Best turnout!

Yesterday we had the best turnout for our Rm 24 Google Meet, with 12 tamariki and 2 support staff joining in our afternoon korero. We had a discussion about who owns a "Pop It" and there were lots of you who do! Do they float or sink in the bath? There are rainbow ones, heart ones, unicorn ones and many more...Mrs Carter has a teddy bear one. You might like to take a photo of your one too?

Te Wiki o Te Reo Maori!

Nau mai, haere mai welcome to Maori Language week. Have you tried this new game which encourages you to learn new words in Te Reo Maori? It is really fun and can be found on our Team 2 site in the Creative Writing folder. We are singing a new Waiata every morning at our Team Rua Assembly! Does your whanau have something to share this week? Can your Nanni make Rewana bread and do you know the recipe? Ka kite, from Mrs Carter.

Fun Friday!

On Friday 10th September Rm 24 dressed in their pyjamas for our 2pm Google Meet! We also brought our favorurite teddy bear or soft toy to share...Then Mrs Carter held a spelling competition of "Bedtime" words, the first person to write the correct answer in the chat was the winner. We had so much fun and enjoyed hearing everyone introduce their teddy friends...

Tongan Language Week

In our Team 2 Assemblies this week we have been learning how to sing the Tongan national anthem and some new words and their meanings. Thanks so much to all the children for sharing and some parents for the translations that were used.

Celebrating Tongan Language Week!

There are lots of Tongan speaking children in our class and this afternoon Tevita, Marriane, PJ, Ezekiel and Akanesi shared some of their language with us! We got to learn and practice saying so many new words in Tongan. We could write a mini dictionary! Thank you for sharing your ideas about Fiafia, Lu Sipi, White Sunday and cultural dress. Malo 'aupito from Mrs Carter.

Team 2 Assemblies

Team 2 have been meeting online at 10 am from Monday to Thursday to listen to one teacher present Team 2 Assembly. They talk about schoolwork planned for the week in Reading, Writing, Maths and Inquiry whilst in Level 4 lockdown.

Remember to listen to our team messages for the day. What topic of learning are you going to start with today? Welcome to our new friends and teachers who joined us this morning, it was so nice to see you again!
