Term 4 Week 7

We made Hula Skirts and we were put into different coloured groups . My group was orange. It was fun making the skirt because I learned a new tying skill. We had parent helpers to help us with the tricky bits. There were fabrics, ribbons and feathers that you could decorate with. We had some photos taken.

Today we went to Corban's Art Centre. We made Maori skirts out of flax and scraps of fabric. It was challenging because we had to do some tying of knots. It was fun being able to choose which fabrics and what colours to use. We got to put petals and feathers on too.

Tricky work getting it balanced!

This week we have been learning to balance teddy bears, beads and rice bubbles. Today we made our own balance with one stick, six pieces of string and two muffin cups.

Clever balancing from Nikhil

We made balances today out of muffin cups, sticks and string. We tied lots of knots to make it strong. We tried making it balance by using cubes, teddy bears and beads . We can make a balance at home if we have the right stuff.

Proud certificate winners

Aniva
At our Athletics I ran in the sprint races.  I got to run in the finals for the 6 year olds. We used our running shoes and shorts. It was a sunny day but a bit cold. I had fun running down the track. I came third in the race and it made me feel happy. Here is a picture of me and the other race winners. I got a green certificate which I am proud of.

Wonderful writing happening!

I like independent writing because I can draw a picture and do writing. After finishing writing I can go on the tumble and choose the I pad activity. I also like to listen the story on listening post.

Beata jumping high!

On Thursday it was Athletic Day and everyone got together to run sprint races.  Aniva came third and she got a green certificate. Angie and I tied in the race. We also did some tabloids. My favourite one was the hoops. Here we had to jump in and out without touching the hoop.
