Last week we were lucky enough to have some great people and their awesome big trucks visit us at Ara Tū Whakatā - Gilberthorpe School. We got to go inside and I am sure that everybody could hear all of the students sounding the horns across the whole of Hei Hei and Hornby! Thank you so much to Miranda for organising and all the awesome people involved for giving our students this amazing experience.
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?
Kia ora Ara Tū Whakatā Safiyya here,
ReplyDeleteI love that fact that the other students loved it.
I hated being in the truck because I said of heights.
Next time you should ask the junior kids to write a story about it then put it on the blog (not all of them).
Bye for now
