I Am Learning to Sequence a Story


Today we read the story called 'The Hungry Hedgehog'. We then had to put the pictures and words in the correct order on the computer.

"It was a little bit tricky to put them in order."

I Am Learning to Write a Sentence About My Cat and Publish My Work in Kid Pix


We drew our cats on the computer using Kid Pix. We coloured in the pictures using the paint can. We wrote the words in our story book. We were writing a sentence describing our cat. Then we wrote our story on our Kid Pix picture.
"I liked drawing my picture. The grass and clouds were fun. Drawing the ears was tricky. Writing  the story was tricky because the letters were capitals. I liked my story."

Science is Fun


Today we made popcorn at school. We heated the corn kernels until they popped. The water in the kernels turned to steam. The steam needed more room so the kernels popped and were fluffy and white. It was yummy!

I Am Learning to say and Write the Numbers Before and After


We are learning to say and write the numbers before and after. If we get stuck we can look at the Pukeko numbers on the wall of our classroom. We can check if we are correct using the numbers on the classroom wall too. Sometimes it is tricky to get the numbers around the right way.

I did the pig one. I chose a big number. It wasn't tricky. I got my numbers the right way round. I can check my numbers on the wall. I like maths.
