Patterns and Math

In Room three we have been learning about patterns and maths, like 11 + 7 = 18. We do it all by ourselves. We don't have to use our fingers.

Overcoming our fears

When I was one, I got my big surf board. I was too scared to go on it. I might fall into the deep sea or I might trip over, but I did it anyway. One day I fell because my dad pushed me over. I didn't get hurt. I felt happy!

Five Senses

I like the taste of chocolate swirling in my mouth.
I like hearing the sound of drilling.
I like smelling flowers.
I like seeing the sunlight.

Hi everyone,

We have some more writing to share with you. Starting tomorrow, we will be posting just ONE special story or poem from Monday to Wednesday. I hope this inspires Room 3 to try their hardest during writing time.

I can write about tigers.
I can write about snakes.
I can write about cakes.

We hope you enjoyed our poems! Look out for us tomorrow too!

See you all next time,

From Room 3.

Max as in Maximum Height!

Kia Ora everyone,

We have a new addition to our class. His name is Max and he is a giraffe. We made him ourselves. We drew brown spots on some paper and then we cut them out. Once we had a whole lot of spots, we glued them onto Max's neck and face.  Max is our guard giraffe because he is going to live right outside our classroom door.  We also made sure Max had plenty to eat. We coloured and cut out loads of leaves too.

Thank you for reading our poems!

Jumbo, Kia Ora, Ni Hao and Dag (that's Dutch if you didn't know!),

Room three would like to say a big, enormous THANK YOU for reading our poems and leaving us feedback. 

We really appreciate it!  We were amazed, and very impressed, that people on the other side of the world in America, read  things that we had thought of and created.

Today we had swimming so we don't have any stories or poems to post, but we will be back tomorrow.

Until then,

Take care and good bye from Room 3.

Today in writing we wrote about a grandparent.

Kia Ora everybody,

Here are our three fab writers of the day...

Grandpa

My Grandpa takes me to the dairy to get a treat.
My Grandpa takes me for a walk.
My Grandpa takes me to the pool.
My Grandpa takes me to the zoo.
My Grandpa makes me feel like the most special child in the whole wide world.

By Rosa

Grandma

My Grandma takes me to playgrounds every day.
My Grandma takes me gardening because I like flowers.
My Grandma takes me home when Mummy is working.
My Grandma takes me out in the garden so I can see beautiful butterflies.
My Grandma makes me feel like the most special child in the whole wide world.

By Samantha

Grandad

My Grandad takes me fishing on the beach.
My Grandad makes me cup cakes.
My Grandad plays sports with me.
My Grandad takes me to the zoo.
My Grandad makes me feel like the most special child in the whole wide world.

By Guojinwang

Thanks for reading our Grandparent  poems.  We love that you value our work!

Our writing today

Hi everyone, from now on, we are going to publish three stories of the day from our story writing.

Please give us feedback.

Today we wrote poems about where we live.

Our Home

Above my house is a moon rising.
Beside my house is a frog croaking.
Below my house is a kangaroo bouncing.
Around my house are bats flying.
Inside my house is a snake slithering!

By Hugo

My House

Above my house is smoke billowing out of the chimney.
Beside my house is my dog burying a bone.
Below my house are worms squiggling.
Around my house is a kennel and plants.
Inside my house is my dog and me!

By Pearl

My house

Above my house are birds squarking.
Beside my house is a hose sprouting on the lawn.
Below my house are mice crawling.
Around my house are lots of flowers.
Inside my house is all my family
and me!

By Lucy

Thanks for reading our poems. We hope you enjoyed them. Please look out for more tomorrow.

Goodbye from Room 3

Hi it's terriffic tiger Tuesday!

Ni Hau everyone,

We hope you had a relaxing break.

We are still thinking about alliteration and adjectives (describing words), but this week we are focusing on VERBS... doing words.

This week, can you go and see Room 8's classroom blog? Their address is:

kilbirnieroom8.blogspot.co.nz

You can check out some cool photographs there and pick your fave!

Pearl and the rest of Room 3 says

Bye bye butterfly (good alliteration Pearl!)
