So long Show off, we will miss you!

Miss B made a sad discovery yesterday morning. When she went to check on our pet frog, Show off, he had died. We will miss his jumping about trying to distract us from our work. He has been an interesting pet and we are lucky to have had him from a tadpole and watch him grow up into a frog.

Brilliant Britney

Britney was this weeks assembly award winner. Miss Pauley chose Britney for her fantastic story writing, especially her Commonwealth games imaginative recount. Well Done Brits!

Room 2 commonwealth games

For the last two weeks Room 2 have been working on Commonwealth Games stories. We wrote stories about all kinds of sports like swimming, diving, sprinting, hockey, cycling, shotput, weightlifting and javelin. Liam's story was about rugby. He was in the All Blacks, Shay's story was about diving. Crytal's story was about gymnastics, Kane's story was about weightlifting and Kaci's was about shotput.
Here is the best bit from Rory's story: "The queen said ALL BLACKS WIN ALL BLACKS WIN and her crown fell right off because she was excited."

Here is the best bit from Elisha's story "When It my turn I did a double twist flip on the 10m bar and I won a gold medal."

By Elisha and Rory.

Jasmine got her award from Miss Pauley for the fantastic way she follows instructions and is always so happy and helpful. Well done ladies.

How to freak out your mother!

Shay, Kane and Cameron read a story called "How to freak your mother out with a dinosaur". It was an unusual story because it was made into a flow chart. You had to read the boxes in the chart and make decisions by following the arrows. The boys made a flow chart themselves in publisher by using the story as a model. Here is Shay's amazing work!

Assembly Award Winners

I can't believe I forgot to tell you about these amazing children! Jazz and Oliver have both got assembly awards for amazing progress in swimming, they were such hard workeres in the pool!
Lucy's award was for her amazing action drawings. Lucy works so very carefully in art thinking about her picture composition. Well Done!

PUPPETS

 

Guess what? Room 2 have a small zoo in our classroom! Our lovely PTA gave us some money to spend on some new things for our class because the children did such a great job of raising money in our mathathon. Room 2 decided we would like some puppets to use at reading time and they have arrived. Some of the girls were enjoying playing with the puppets this morning, take a look

Jump Day!

Check out the fantastic day we had yesterday at our Jump Day to help raise some money for the heart foundation. Thanks Lucy for taking such amazing shots!
