A Visitor to Room 3

Tyler's mum brought Tyler's new bunny to school to show us. What a little cutie. Tyler has called it Buttons. Tyler told us he feeds it carrots, rabbit pellets and water.We liked feeling its soft fur.



We have been learning all about shapes. We had fun making some shapes on the floor with our bodies.


Pentagon


Hexagon

Rectangle

Oval




We made robots...

This week we learnt how to make our own robots using the computers



Then we had to name them, print them out and wrote stories about them...here is a small selection of our work.


My robot has a love heart and it has a phone on it. My robot helps me tidy my room.

"I made a robot. It is a girl. It is Crystal," said Mya.

Learning NZ Sign Language

Every Monday we spend a few minutes learning some sign language. We can all finger spell our names and last Monday we learnt how to say "Hello my name  ......" We worked with a friend and told them our name in sign.

Painting


Art work by room 3 inspired by New Zealand artist, Don Binney's native bird paintings.

We painted the background mixing our own colours. The birds we did in pastels and then glued onto the background.
