Hundreds, Tens and Ones.

We got three cards each and had to place them in the Hundreds, Tens or Ones column. We had to try and make the biggest number out of the cards that we had. Did you Know that JD won 3 times in a row!!!

* Listen very carefully and remember everyone's news.

It's Snowing!

We all got to see the snow in the weekend. This is a photo of the snow on the ranges, outside our classroom window!

In the weekend my brother was so excited because in 8 years it hasn't snowed. After school I am going to the ranges. It might be closed.

By Mitchell

In the weekend I heard thunder and hail. When I heard the thunder I curled up in a ball. I saw snow on the mountain and when I was walking to school I saw ice! Snow is fun.

Number One!

Bethany and Lucy had a go at re telling the story "Number One" with puppets. It is very quiet, you will need to turn the volume up.

Awesome effort girls!!!

A Tiger in a Car???

Today Miss Evans showed us a picture of a tiger in a car. I think it's silly. I wonder where it is going? Maybe it's running away. Tigers are supposed to be in the zoo.

By Charlotte

I have never seen a tiger in a car before. That is funny. I think the tiger is going to the zoo.

Super Writers

Today we wrote about what we did in the weekend. Our goal was to use correctly spelt 'speedy words' and listen carefully to the sounds we can hear in 'tricky words'. Marino, Jeremy and Cyan worked hard to achieve this goal! Kapai!

In the weekend I am going to the cafe in Whanganui and I am going to the park and I am going to the gas station on the way to Ashhurst and I want to go to my poppas.

By Jeremy

In the weekend on Saturday I went to the church with my mum and my aunty and my brother and my cousin and me.

By Marino

In the weekend my nanny came to my house for four sleeps. My dad said I was old enough to cook dinner but he was tricking me and Kahu. Me and Kahu and mum made pikelets. They were yummy! We all had some. On one of the pikelets had a shape that was a tree. That tree was big. I had one pikelet when it was Saturday night because I was hungry. The one I ate was fluffy inside.
