Term 2 Week 2: Our Sugar Snap Peas begin to grow! We practise with the Rakau.

What a nice surprise this morning when we got to school and saw the first shoots appearing!

 Every single pea that was planted has begun to grow! Now the students just need to keep looking after them, you've done very well so far.

 It takes concentration, co-ordination, co-operation and good timing to succeed with the Rakau!

Term 2 Week 1 Welcome back everyone!

We look at feelings in Maori

We plant some Sugar Snap peas

 First we all had to make a hole 2 and a half centimetres deep

Next we each put a pea into the hole we had made

 Then we covered the hole with seed raising mix

Finally we watered the seeds...now we have to look after them.  They should begin to sprout in just over a week.

Term 1 Week 10 - We raised $66 for the gala by selling our photo frames! We use playdoh to create some of the minibeasts we have looked at. We paint our clay boats, we turn ourselves into strange minibeasts in our E-Learning.

 We finish off our topic by creating minibeasts out of playdoh.

We had a mix of creatures with many legs, 8 legs, 6 legs, no legs, wings, shells, stings, pincers, warning colours, camouflage, exoskeletons and many other features that we studied over the last few weeks.
