Week 8 - Term 3

Motat
Check out our Motat photos here. We had such a fabulous time there. We were very lucky that the rain held off for most parts of the day. Thank you again to our parent helpers and to all children in A2 for such a tremendous day. Wasn't life so different 100 years ago!

This week is Te Reo Māori Language Week. We are learning to use more Māori kupu (words) and phrases like - He aha tenei? (What is this?)

Our Big Book story this week is called Tamure and the Taniwha. 

There are lots of Māori myths and legend stories availble on Youtube. Check out the link below to view the stores. 

Word Word & Handwriting 

Our sounds this week to learn are the long o (oa, oe, ow, o-e, o) and long u (ue, u-e, ew) 

For handwriting this week we are practising the formation of the letters l, t, i, j. 

Writing

Our writing is integrated with our Big Book - focusing on how a narrative has a Problem and Solution.

Remember to come check out the fantastic Grandma McGarvey writing. 

Maths

This week for maths we are using skip counting, repeated addition and our times tables for problem solving.

Have a lovely week A2 whanau
