More powerpoints - Part 2

Friday Lunchtime Ukulele class!

Every Friday lunchtime Eva has a ukulele lesson.  We were lucky enough to have the tutor and some seniors join Eva to play a song for us. Wow, Eva you have done a lot of learning at ukulele classes!

Well done.

Eva's scarecrow

Eva  designed a  scarecrow.  Her reading group read Scarecrows from space!  In  the book  it  looked

hard to make one.

Buddy Day

Room 14 and some children from Room 2 are working together to create a buddy for Buddy Day.

They have to choose a profile for the buddy which tells everyone the buddy's name and what he or she likes to do. We haven't finished them yet but they will be ready to go and spend a day at a local business soon!

Class Reporters!

The year 2 team are having class reporters for the next two weeks. Everyone has a turn at choosing what they will talk about. The talk or speech is for about 2 minutes and the rest of the class are listening carefully

Eva spoke first about the Kids Challenge that she competed in. Great speech Eva - you used expression and spoke clearly.

Your speech explained what children can expect if they enter the race!

Our next speaker was Max, who told us some very interesting facts about the planets and he even had some model planets to show us. You spoke very well on your topic, Max.

Daniels was our third speaker today and he shared a bird's nest that he found a while ago. Daniels was able to share where he found it and what it's made of. He spoke clearly and looked at the audience, which is not that easy to do!

Independent work on the iPad

We have been working independently to use the iPad or Tablet to show our learning. 

Superman cake!

Pukeko Reading Group

Pukeko Reading Group can do their reading activity on the iPad the tablet or the iPod.  It is fun using technology but it's not that easy!  Sometimes you have to do the sentence a couple of times before it is right.  KC kids are resilient and they keep trying! Great effort Pukeko!

I like the sentences Eva.  We need to find out
how to make the text go wider!

Good sentences Cooper. They talk about the picture!

Dylan's Pizap! Good choice of sentence Dylan!

More assembly pic collages!

Nice colours in your poster Zeita-Maree.
You were great on the stage and you are right, KC kids do try their best! 

Great work being Nigel Naylor, Dylan.
It was hard to be the first to say their part and you did it confidently!

Your poster looks terrific Eva.
I like the thought you put into placing your photo and text.
Well done up on the stage too!

Great work on your poster, Martin.
You were very good up on the stage doing the dancing.
 I liked the dog brainstorm you did as well.

Starfish poem

We read a poem about a starfish this week.

We watched some video clips and learnt a lot of facts about starfish or Sea Stars, as they are also called.  You can also hear a story about starfish.

What do you think the story means?

Reading Activity

Sometimes when we read a book we can do an activity about the book.  We really liked making our spinning snakes.  Some of us made them at home as well.
