Whanau Day Poem Finalists

Last Friday Room 1 had three poem recital finalists.  They were all awesome!  We were very proud of Sol, Noah, and Leyah.

Meeting Harold

Room 1 really enjoyed our two visits to the Life Education Caravan. We learnt a lot about the air we breathe. The highlight was meeting Harold.

Room 1 Science Celebration

Room 1 was excited to see all their hard work up in the Endeavour Centre. We have been learning so much about flight. It was great to share our work with the other classes and our families. Awesome Room 1!

Balloon powered cars

What do you think Room 1?  Should we have a go at making these?

We could save our milk cartoons..... But we will have to wash them,

Music

Today we went for our second Music lesson with Mrs Lyons.  So far we are learning to:

* Keep in time to a rhythm
* Read simple music
* Join in a dance
* Sing a song in tune

We had a lot of fun!

5th in the School Cross Country

This is a photo of Kaeden receiving a School Cross Country Certificate.  There was a mistake on the day.  We like to celebrate each others successes in Room1 (and pull some crazy faces!).

Frogs vs Toads

Last week Room 1 read a book together called "Tiddalik".  We are fascinated about frogs at the moment.  Here are some facts about some flying frogs.  Room 1 knows the difference between frogs and toads.

There are three types of flying frogs.  These flying frogs live in a rain forest in Malaysia:

1.      The golden tree frog flies like a parachute.

2.      The javen flying frog flies like a para glider (although we have to do some more research about the name of this frog.  We do not know if we are correct).

3.      The wallace frog flies like it has aerofoils.
