Room 3’s confident kids!
Kia Ora everyone,
As part of the Kilbirnie School C.A.R.E. programme (Confidence, Achievement, Respect, Empathy), we wrote about a time that we showed confidence.
Thank you to those who have left comments about our blog. It means so much to the children and makes us feel good to know that people care about what we've been up to.

Room
3’s confident kids!
At
the playground I wanted to climb the climbing wall. I was scared, but I did it
anyway. I was confident.
Samuel
One
time I was scared to go on a slide and a see-saw. I was scared to go on the
bouncy bus too, but when I tried it, I liked it. I was confident.
Caitlin
One
time I was scared by the escelator, but then I was brave. That showed I had
confidence.
Antara
When
I went to ballet I did statues on one leg. I showed confidence and that made me
feel good.
Philippa
I
went to my friends home. I wanted to pat her dog, but I was afraid. But I did
it anyway.

Well I went down the slide. That showed confidence.

My
whole family went to the Newtown pool. I was scared to go on the slide, but I
went on it anyway. There was water coming out of the slide. Cold water. I had
fun.
Isla
M
I
went to a bull race. I was scared when the bull went too fast, but I rode it
anyway.

Parents evening
Kia Ora family and friends,
Thanks so much for coming to our classroom last night to see our work, where we spend our time in the week days, and to chat with our teacher.

We are going to start swimming in our school pool. Could you please send togs and towel with your child each day, just in case the weather is good enough.
Philippa would like to add that we are rock stars at writing!
That's all for now,
Thanks for reading our blog.

welcome to Room 3
Hi everyone, this is our first blog for 2013. We have a whole new class full of new children, new ideas, new experiences, new backgrounds and new blogs.
Well, after two days of school last week, we're now into week 2 already! Guided reading officially started today and from this evening onwards, all children will take home a reading book. Please ensure your child has a book bag to protect our books.
As it's summer, all children need to wear a sunhat. If they don't bring a hat to school, they have to sit in the shade for the duration of the break.
That's all our news for today.
Please keep a look out for our blogs every couple of days. And we love to read your comments too, so don't be shy in leaving one!

Personification
Kia Ora everyone,
Today we did some writing using descriptive verbs and personification.
They are just so good that I had to share the whole lot!
When it's windy the sunflowers are trying to race out of the dirty and grassy ground. They want to explore the universe. The sun is a whole lot of hot, shiny stars. Lots of white sponges surrounded by the sun.
By Jakeb C.
The sunflower sprinkles her seeds all over me like a shower. Her leaves are tickley on my face. Her petals make a pillow and swish across the sky.
By Lucy
The stars are shooting by like a cheetah. The stars are bright like my white teeth.
By Hugo
The sun sings a soft lullaby to the clouds. The sun is a shiny face looking at me. The sun swims in the hot sky. The sun blows the clouds away from the sky. The sun is a big, bright sunflower.
By Julia
In the wild sky there is a something shooting by. "There is someone looking at me", I said to the sky. She said to me, "maybe it is a rocket shooting by you". I said to her, "maybe it is a lantern".
By Esme
The sun is hot in Samoa and it makes me tired.
By Junior
The sun shines and lights up the blue, dark sky and whispers to the clouds a nice lullaby.
By Rosa
The sun is as hot as lava and as gold as the stars in the night sky. It burns down to the sleepy world below and whispers to the clouds. The sunflower waves her leaves in the breeze. She bends down and pleads me for water.
By Emily
The sun is a big star that waves to the world below. The sun tells funny jokes to the clouds. She sometimes shoots to her bed and snuggles up tight.
By Charlotte
The stars are someones gleaming eyes, twinkling in the night sky. The stars are like fireworks, sparks everywhere.
By Pearl
The sun burns its bright arms of fire, like a sausage on fire. The sun shoots out like a cannon ball shooting out of a cannon.
By Connor
The sun shines like a diamond shining brightly, like fire, like flames.
By James
The sun is burning down the sky, shining down the very gold sun, so hot, like the desert. So hot.
By William
The sun's arms are fire trying to set the clouds on fire. That's the evil sun.
By Nico
The sun is very hot. It is like a BBQ. If you touch the BBQ, it is like the sun. The sun makes you sweat. Put sunscreen on or the sun will burn your whole body!
By Dylan
The sun slowly sets as the moon comes up for a nap in the sky. While the sun sets, it goes for a great holiday on the mountain top. It warms the lions as they sleep during summer. At last it comes back up.
By Caitlin
I rang santa up. Santa said to me, "you are good, now you can get presents for christmas time".
By Sylvie
The stars are angels gleaming and twinkling in the dark, night sky. But, as dawn breaks up from his holiday, the stars go back home under the ground where they'll have a cup of tea. When the sun journeys back home, the stars come back to the dark, black sky and go back to work on the computer.
By Molly
The sunflower is a lady who grows out of the ground. She's like the sun, except she doesn't grow that high. She sparkles and shines from the sun. When the breeze is high, the leaves from the sunflower come alive. She waves her leaves to me to say, "hi". She sometimes bends down to pour some sunflower seeds in my hand. She says goodbye to me and squishes her petals to go to sleep.

The wild wind
Hi all, today we decided to write about the wind as it is such a wild, windy day!
Wind
The wind feels strong like giant footsteps. The wind looks like the sky is broken. I love the wind. The wind pulls me like a toy. The coldest wind is point zero %. "Cold aye", I said, "aaaaahhhhhhhhh! Im getting blown through a bush backwards!"
By Caitlin
The Wind
I like the wind because it sings me a lullaby every night. It helps me snuggle down in my cozy bed so I can sleep.
By Molly
The Wind
I like the wind because it will blow my dad's car away. I think we could drive in the sky. Then the wind would let go of us. We would drop down.
By William
The Wind
I like the wind because it blows me along. It feels like I'm magic. I like the wind because we get to go on the computer or watch a movie or we will play with the lego. It's fun.
By Connor
