Welcome to Sunnyhills Borayr

Borayr started in Room 9a today. 


He wasn't feeling well in the weekend so couldn't start yesterday with Mia, Alexander and Lydia. 
We are looking forward to getting to know you Borayr. 

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.

Welcome to Room 9 Mia, Alexander and Lydia

First day's at school are exciting but also a bit scary too as you have no idea of what to do. 


Mia, Alexander and Lydia did such a super job!

Flower Name Order

We have been learning the order of the letters in our name.

We had to cut the flower out first, write the letters of our name on each petal, then order the letters correctly. 


Look at Jennifer's finished flower. Isn't it beautiful.

What a lot of letters Jennifer had to order to make her name!


Visitors for Room 9

Laela, Mia, Borayr and Alexander came to visit Room 9



Mia, Alexander and Borayr start school on Monday. How exciting!

Te Reo

We have been learning to count to 10 in Te Reo.
We sing a song to help us learn to count.





1, 2, 3, 4, 5






6, 7, 8, 9, 10.

We have also been learning how to say the colours in Te Reo.
Singing helps us to remember the colours too. 
Come in and have a go yourself.




Maths with Gnomeo

Today we had a visitor to Room 9, it was a garden gnome called Gnomeo!


Gnomeo helped us to learn how to play a new maths game called Ice-Cream Number Match.
We had tpo count the spots on the ice-cream and match it to the number on the ice cream cone.
We ordered the numbers 1-10.


Gnomeo also taught us a new Maths game where we had to match the top and the bottom of ice-blocks.
The top of the ice block has the number and a dice showing the same amount of spots. 

On the bottom of the ice blocks, there is a tens frame showing the number of spots and a tally chart showing the number too. Once we had matched them, we put them in order 1-10 and we counted forwards and backwards.


Maths is fun. Thank you Gnomeo for helping us learn how to count to 10.
