Counting Cars.

 We learnt about making a tally chart this week and how it can help us record information. 

Together with a partner, we made our own tally chart and found out what vehicles go past our school between 9:20-9:30am.  

Some children collected information about the colours of cars, and some found out what types of vehicles go past.  

Great counting and recording!

Pangarau ~ Statistics - gather, record, interpret.

 For the first part of this term, we are focusing on the Statistics Maths strand.  We are learning to gather and collect data/information, record it and interpret it.

This has helped us to find out lots of things about the learners in Room 6. 

How does Room 6 come to school....???

What pets do Room 6 have...???

What shoes do Room 6 children wear.....???

Drawing our portraits as part of Turangawaewae.

This is some Room 6 children taking a careful look at their faces in a mirror then try to draw them. 

This activity helps us to notice and observe shapes, proportions, and how different or similar we are to others.    

 

Taonga o te kura ~ treasures of school.

 This week we went on a treasure hunt around our beautiful school. 

We found all our taonga and more.  

Off we go....

A very weedy Kitchen garden needing some love.
