Sports report from Kiwi Class.

We have been doing a lot of reading and learning about the commonwealth games this week, so we thought we might have a go at giving a sports report. Here are some of the Kiwi Class reporters. please note that some of us got a bit nervous and our information may not have been 100% accurate.

We have many more clips to share, so stayed tuned .

Today Belinda and Lace did the blog  the first thing we did was some skipping. 

Mrs Brattle challenged us to better the number of jumps we could do. Most of us were able to double the number of jumps we could do by the end of our session. We also had to see if we could jump for a minute without stopping (we need to work on our fitness, as this was much harder to do than we thought). We were so puffed from our skipping that we started our morning tea early while Mrs Brattle read us some of our chapter book.

We had a nice silent reading time. While we were reading we had milk. Then we had news. Here are the pictures of the people who had news today. Thanks for sharing your stories with us.

Mrs Brattle had a magic moment where she was looking for people who we're sitting nicely and listening well at news time. She spotted everyone in the class and we all got to move our pegs up 1 on the clip it chart.

Thursday is Subway day so that is always exciting.

During reading today we found an article about the New Zealand weight lifter who won a silver medal. We worked out that the weight he lifted was about as heavy as all of us!!  Maybe even more.

It was a good day today and we are looking forward to School photos tomorrow.

Thank you to Lace and Belinda for our photos and ideas for the blog today. You girls made a good start on the typing.

Duncan's fabulous homework.

Duncan has been working really hard at home and enjoying doing some science experiment. Thanks so very much for sharing.

Body percussion challenge.

For music appreciation Mr Sheehan showed us some body percussion performances. He then set us the challenge of creating our own pieces. We had to work in groups and here's what we came up with.

We hoped you enjoyed our performances, we worked really hard at them. 

Monday 21st of July.

Today was the first day back after the holidays. We are now in term 3!  First thing this morning we logged onto our Plateau School website, the Ultranet page had been updated and was all new. 

We all got into a circle and had REALLY long news, everyone had loads to share about their holidays but we all managed to listen very well and enjoyed the stories from our class mates.

By the time our news had finished it was nearly morning tea time. Mrs Brattle let us have our morning tea a bit early.

After we ate our morning tea some people did the Twister dance.

When we came back from morning tea we did writing, we added some more to our neighbourhood maps and wrote in a new story. 

Then we did some author circles, these are a new way of sharing our ideas and work with our peers.

Some people had mentioned in the morning that a lady overseas had made a dress out of loom bands and sold it for enough money to buy a house! This sounded very interesting, so for reading we searched on the internet and found some news articles about this loom dress. Here is the article we read.

These girls spent their lunch time practicing a dance to show us. We were very impressed with their moves, well done girls.

After lunch we had some games in the hall, it was good to have a run around and stay warm. Then it was back to class to tidy up, get our reading logs and pack up for home time. Before we went home Mrs Brattle shared a postcard with us. It was from Riley and her family, we were so excited to hear from her and receive our postcard from Hong Kong. 

What a great start to term 3, I wonder what tomorrow will bring?
