It has been another busy week in our Kowhanga with what is shaping up to be a busy week ahead.
On Friday of Week 7 there is the school disco. Junior disco starts at 5.30pm and is 'Movies' Theme so dress up as your favourite movie character. Tickets can be purchased for $5 at the office.
Matariki - we have been learning all about Matariki this week and have done some great artwork around this too. Talk to your child and see if they can tell you what Matariki is all about. We will carry on our focus around Matariki through out June.
Maths - The children have loved learning about money during maths as well, check out some photos of them below playing money games, doing money rubbing and playing 'shops'. We are moving on from Money next week and starting to look at Time. We are continuing to work on place value using 100s, 10s and 1s as well as basic facts to improve our recall. We are continuing to learn about adding groups of objects together and write the equation; counting on from the biggest number first. Some children will be learning to count through 10s.
Reading - thank you for continuing to read with your child each night.
Basketball Skills started with great enthusiasm this week. The children enjoyed practising new basketball skills with Terry from Hoop Club and getting the chance to shoot some hoops - I was impressed with their perseverance.
Have a great weekend!
Amy and Claire.
