Life Education Van

In Week One of this Term, we had Harold and Corinne come and teach us about the brain.

This week we visited Harold and Corinne in the life Education Van. 

Something new things I learned were that

1.  the left side of your brain controls the right side of your body and the right side of your brain controls the left side. 

2. Your brain controls a lot of things.

3. The back of your brain controls your vision.

Term 2 Reflections

Enjoy some of our reflections as we look back on Term 2. It has been a busy Term full of learning and fun! 

This is the last day of Term 2. My favourite part of this term was making the NZ brochures because it was so fun.

Some new things I learned were

1.     The Pinwheels: I learned facts about China.

2.     Music: I want to be a musician.

3.     The Button Box: It was so fun to be a part of.

Somegthing I found difficult was the IKAN test because it was too fast. Something I want to do next term is focus on my Maths so I can learn and be smart.

My favourite part of this term was the Coat of Arms art because we got to draw our favourite things. A piece of work I am proud of is my writing because I have been doing lots of writing with my class. Some new things I learned were the

1.     IKAN test

2.     Spelling test

3.     Basic Facts test

Smething I found difficult was the  Basic Facts tests because you had to finish before 10 minutes.

Next term I am looking forward to studying and maybe making some comics.

My favourite part of this term was the Coat of Arms art because you can draw a picture that is important to your family. A piece of work I am proud of is my listening comprehension because my teacher asks questions about the book. Something new I learned how to do was my New Zealand Brochure. Something I found difficult was the Button Box because we did it for a long time.

India and New Zealand

After learning all about different countries, we then compared them to New Zealand. We worked in pairs and small groups to look at the similarities and differences - and at what makes each country so special.

Here are some of our comparisons between New Zealand and India. Veronica joined our class around this time and wrote an amazing comparison between New Zealand and China. Enjoy!
