NZ Native Fur Seals

Room 9 and 9a have been learning about the NZ Native Fur Seal. Mrs Harding did some work with Room 9a. It took a while to go through the steps but what an amazing job they did!

Come and see the wonderful display that Mrs Harding has put together to show the process Room 9a went through. 

Pirate Day Writing

Following our Pirate Day, we all wrote about a Pirate and we drew some pictures of Pirates.  Here are some examples of our Pirate Writing and Artwork.

Come into Room 9/9a to see more.

Writing in Room 9a

The room 9a children have been at school for a while now.

We have been working hard to write down our ideas. 

We are starting to write more independently.

We use our butterfly cards which help with letter sounds and common sight words.

We also use the word ending caterpillar cards to help us write word endings like - playing, played, player, plays.

Come into our classroom and ask to see our Writing books, we will show you how we push ourselves to achieve our goals and how amazing we are!

Writing in Room 9 and 9a

Today we had fun during Writing

We used our butterfly cards and word ending caterpillars to write about the rat character from the big book. 

Cody ordered the letters of the alphabet which are written on cut up pieces of noodle.

We all practiced writing the upper and lower case letters of the alphabet.

Writing

We have been using some of the common words to help us write sentences.

One day this week we used "I am' to help us start a sentence.

Kate was very clever and helped Mrs Burge to find the word I using the butterfly card.

We are getting clever at finding words we know in the red, blue or yellow boxes.

We can also hear the sounds in words we don't have on the butterfly card like 'ktn' for kitten.

Our first attempt at Writing!

Writing

Today we did Writing for the first time. 

 

We were so clever at using our butterfly cards to find letters and words.
