Matariki Celebration

Here are some photos of our Matariki Celebration evening this week for you to enjoy:

 

 

Stage 3 - learning to partition to 10, then add the rest on.

Mrs C's stage 3 group have been learning the number bonds that make 10:

0 + 10
1 + 9
2 + 8
3 + 7
4 + 6
5 + 5
6 + 4
7 + 3
8 + 2
9 + 1
10 + 0

Now, they are learning to partition the second number when adding to make a ten first ( this is a much easier number to add with!). Check out some photos of them working with this new strategy...

Slytherin Flying High

Today Mrs C's Slytherin group made paper planes and used our feet to measure how far they had flown.  Here are some snippets of our time together today:

Persia and Aniyah concentrating on making their paper planes.

Isaia and Jadyn enjoyed folding and bending the paper to try different designs.

Nearly done!

Here we go...up...up...and away!

Finished, here we are with our designer paper planes

Passion Projects

Part of our tinana learning is following our own line of inquiry - our own passion project.  Here is the Kid President (who Room 2 love) giving us a pep talk - followed by an explanation for you of what Passion Projects are:
