Week 1 of Term 2, a busy start to the term.

A new term has started and it is wonderful to see nearly all of our tamariki have returned to kura.

This week we read a text in Shared Reading called Pitcher Plants. We learned all about these intriguing carnivorous plants. Whaea Debb even brought in her pitcher plant from home. It was really cool to be able to see an actual live Pitcher Plant. 

For maths, we started learning about shapes for the Geometry strand. We learned about plane shapes (2 dimensional) and solid shapes (3 dimensional). We also built our own shapes using K-Nex.

For PE we had Sport Northland come and teach us some small ball skills games. We had to listen carefully to instructions and work in small teams.
