Kiwi Class read the story 'The Three Cattle Dogs Gruff' by Chris Gurney. It is a New Zealand version of 'The Three Billy Goats Gruff'. Just like the cattle dogs in the story, we all thought about ways that we could trick the taniwha so that we could cross the bridge without being eaten. Here are some of our wonderful ideas.
This year we are doing phonics in our homerooms. Kiwi class looks at two letters and their matching sounds every week. Weka and Pukeko classes work together on one letter of the week. Each week we have a letter of the week wall where we display all the things we can find that begin with our letter of the week. Last week our letter was H and we had some fun having Harlin Haines wearing a hat on our h wall. Too cute not to share! This week our letter is J so get your thinking caps on Weka and Pukeko classes, what words do you know that start with J?
hello my name is Oscar, I liked the way you thought. of good ways to cross the bridge, on Casey's one the trampoline part. reminded me of when I got a tramp! maybe you could make a story. involving some of the parts in the book.
