Reminder


                    Just a wee reminder....

  •       This Friday we are hosting and presenting at assembly.
  •       Next Tuesday is school photos.


Self Portraits

This term we are learning more about ourselves and our classmates. We have been looking at ourselves in the mirror and discussing what we have that is the same and what we have that is different.
We then practiced how to draw our facial features; eyes, noses and mouths.

After lots of practice we created our self portraits. It took us many days, because we were trying to go slow and careful with our drawing and painting.

We think they look great and think you will too!!
We will be sharing these on Friday at assembly. Try to come along to see our wonderful creations!

Number line subtraction fun

Today we learnt how to use a number line to help us solve subtraction (take away) problems. 
We started on a big number line that Mrs Robertson drew on the carpet in class. We would jump backwards on the number line to work out the answer.
For example if the problem was 9-5=
We would start on the number 9 then jump backwards 5 numbers. The number we ended on would be the answer   9-5=4




We then went outside and all drew our own number lines so we could work out some problems ourselves.

Family Art

We have been thinking about what makes our family special to us. We wrote about why we love them and then drew our families.
We decided to put the amazing pictures we drew in gold frames.
Here is Taurios, Zoey, Xanthia and Iziah putting in some super effort to complete their stunning pieces.




They will be on display in our classroom on Thursday night, when hopefully we will see lots of the parents at meet the teacher night.

Horse Races

Last Friday we had horse races in the pool. It was so much fun!
