Wrapping up Term 1!

It's been a short week, but boy we have managed to cram a lot in. We kicked off the week with a fun miniball session with Gus from the Nelson Giants.

  

 We also finished off our corrugated cardboard art.  This artwork demonstrates some of the techniques of tinting, shading and warming colours that we have learnt about this term.    

To celebrate the end of term in reading we have practiced and performed plays.

  

We celebrated Easter today by playing our Easter themed board games that we have made as part of our homework over the last two weeks

Today we also celebrated ANZAC day by having a special assembly.  We had a special guest from the RSA come and speak to us and Logan Ford came and played the Last Post for us.  All this action wraps up a busy Term 1 in Room 5!

  

Retells and Rights

Today we posted our little movies of our retells that we wrote earlier in the term.  We used a great little app called Little Bird Tales.  Check out each of our stories by clicking on our individual blogs.

Here is Tessa's retell of Tricking the Tiger.

Today we also finished our big posters on Children's Rights.  These are based upon UNCROC.  The United Nation Convention on the Rights of the Child. Together as Kahikatea Syndicate each class has made posters to show these rights.  Check out our great artwork in our hallway.
