Scruffy our dog!

Scruffy is Room 1's pet.  He is mischievous and is not always doing what he is supposed to be doing. One of Scruffy's favourite things to do is read books and listen to stories.

When Room 1 came back from morning tea we found this letter in Mrs Elvidge's writing book.

Dear Room 1,

I have watched you all work very hard over the last two days.  I think we are going to have a great year.  I have just popped out to find some stories for our class.  I wonder if Mrs Elvidge will let you come and find me?

I will be busy reading one of my favourite authors.  What is one of your favourite books?  Could you please write to me and tell me.

Lots of Love,

Scruffy

Room 1 really wanted to go and find Scruffy.  We found him reading a 'Hairy Maclary' book in the library.

Luckily Mrs Atkinson didn't mind because the library is not open until next week.  Scruffy was really quiet in the library.  We all chose some books and went back to class to start our own letters to Scruffy.

See you on Tuesday!!!!

Whanau Day: Part 2

Sol helped the rest of the class how to use movement and gestures to make our poems entertaining.

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!

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,
