Room 2 with Mrs Kearns: August 2016

Teach Me Tuesday

Every Tuesday Mrs Kearns hands over her teaching wand and someone teaches us something amazing. We are learning so much!

Indie taught us to make a Lego playground. We loved the lights and the tiny piano.

Levi taught us all to play Tiddlewinks- it was hard!

Connor is a Marvel Avengers expert and brought in his awesome collection.

Monique taught us some science and we made balloon rockets. One went as high as the Junior Learning Center.

As part of our Inquiry, Toys Through Time, we visited Ferry Mead. We loved dressing up and pretending it was one hundred years ago. We went to school with the very strict and bossy Miss Brown. We helped clean Mrs Grey, the policemans' wife's house. We played with old fashioned games for the indoors and heritage games outside. We made a thaumetrobe puppet. We loved seeing all the old vehicles and the bus ride was awesome.

Olympic Day

We loved learning about the Olympics. To celebrate the Olympics we had an Olympics Day. Room 2 learnt about China and we competed as China in a range of fun sports and activities. We had flags and waved them proudly at our Opening Ceremony. We made crafts such as medals, torches and Olympic rings. Then we competed in sports such as hurdles, shot put, gymnastics and discuss. We have been following the New Zealand Olympic team with interest....
