Learning about the letter W

This week our poem was about a worm (because we are learning about Ww). We learnt some interesting facts about worms today when we wanted to know what they eat. Each student has the poem of the week to take home for weekend reading with their whanau. Happy reading and learning about worms.

Learning about the letter V

Today we had VEGETABLES because we are learning about the letter V.

We tried broccoli, carrots and celery. We had three different dips to go with our vegetables (roasted capsicum, hummus and good old fashioned onion dip). Here are our photos and some fabulous writing!

Healthy Eating

This week we had a visit from Whaea Gina from Energize. She taught us about what foods are healthy. After her visit, we decided to try three different types of broccoli and have a taste test. We tried normal broccoli, broccolini and dehydrated broccoli.

NED Show

This week we had Nicole visit us to tell us about NED. She taught us to say "I can't do it YET" instead of "I can't do it". She also taught us about some good things to remember when things get hard.
Never give up!
Encourage other!
Do your best!

Here are some of our stories.

I liked the Yeti and the yo-yo. 
By John-William

I liked the yo-yo lady.
By Phoenix

I went to the Whare and saw the yo-yo lady. The Yet was cool.
By Stephen

I saw NED and that yo-yo lady and the Yet. The Yet's name was "Yet". And I learnt about never giving up.
