Cross-country training with Zane from Project Energize. 





Well done everyone on their cross-country efforts!!!

Writing. 

Everyone in room 4 is working hard to learn their phonics and use them in their writing. 
We are learning that words are made up of parts and sounds. 
Each day we learn a new sound and try to use it in our writing (or reading).

Beautiful work in Room 4. 

A collaborative art piece. 

This term we have been working hard on a collaborative art piece for the art exhibition in week 6 next term.  


First, we learnt about natural and man-made materials and what would be suitable to weave with.  

Next, we built the weaving frame. 
            
Then we collected what we could from around the school and began to weave.  




   

Big Thanks to those who brought materials in for us to add to our piece. 
                              It looks AMAZING  !!!!

Measurement. 

We have been learning about measurement in Room 4.  We are learning to predict, length, mass, capacity and then measure using a self-chosen unit. 
We also had lots of fun learning to give directions, turns, left and right to someone who was blindfolded. 

     
Building a tall tower.
   
Building a wide wall.

Making Matariki Soup.

We had a fantastic time on Friday making our Matariki soup.  Thanks to everyone who brought in a vegetable. 

We worked together in teams to cut, grate, slice, chop, stir, decorate and create our Matariki feast.  

First we had to plan what we would put in the soup and who had which job. 

 Then we got into action and cooked a delicious feast. 
Well done Room 4.
