Maths Problems

 This week we had a maths problem about patterns. We had a lot of colourful fish which had different patterns on them. We talked about "the same" and different". We worked on sorting and making patterns.

Learning about the letter V

Last week we were learning about the letter V. First we learnt about volcanoes and then we had a science experiment. 
We made a pretend volcano.
We used baking soda, white vinegar and red food colouring to make a pretend eruption. Here are our pictures and our writing.

Matariki Kites

This week we have been learning about Matariki. 
We read the story "The seven kites of Matariki" 




The Seven Kites of Matariki

Then we made kites. The beautiful kites in the story were our inspiration.

We went to look at the kite in our School Whare.
