More powerpoints - Part 2

Reading activity

We read a book. I worked really hard. 

I worked with a buddy. 

It was not that hard. The book was about a spider who wanted spots. 

The spider looked at what ladybird had but not what the spider had.                    

Control tower

After athletics we had free time! Cooper and Isaac worked together to make this very tall and carefully balanced control tower!

Speeches

Our next set of speeches are by Brayton, Isaac, Ake and Sophie.

Brayton talked to us about his cars. He brought in some photos that his mum took of the cars and one photo that he took himself. Brayton spoke so that the audience could hear him. Well done Brayton. 

The next speech was about... Batman!

Isaac shared a lot of facts that he knows about Batman and he even had a picture he had drawn. The audience could hear the speech and Isaac looked at the audience a few times. Interesting speech thank you Isaac. 

Ake's speech was about Leap. She was prepared for her speech with notes to remind her about what she wanted to say. Ake also shared some of her pictures she had drawn at home of the pig from "The Pig in the Pond". Well done Ake 

What does Sophie  know about Tinkerbell?  Well, Sophie did her speech about her Tinkerbell doll and she knows all about Tinkerbell and her sister and what they do. An interesting speech Sophie and everyone could hear your voice. Good work!

Assembly 2014 part 1

We have been working on the iPads to share our cool KC Kid pictures and our thoughts about our assembly. 

We will keep posting them as we finish them! 

Cool photo Isaac and I love your KC kid's smile!
 You spoke really clearly with the microphone.
I was impressed with your confidence

Great poster Max, and I liked the way you spoke on the stage.
You were great at remembering your words! 

Nice poster Shamille, I like your background!
 I loved the dog brainstorm too.
You spoke well using the microphone.

Karearea Reading Task

The children in Karearea reading group worked independently on the iPads to do a character study.  First they read the book "Bend, Stretch and Leap" and identified Tommy as the main character.  Then they put the information they could find about Tommy onto a Pic Collage. They found a picture of Tommy in the book and snipped around it so that he was the only one in the photo. Very clever!

 

Some of the information has gone behind the heart - oh no!
I like the photo you chose of Tommy. Good work!

Your information looks great, Molly. You found out a lot about Tommy. Maybe you could have labelled the picture of Jessica so we know who she is?

Good work boys - You found some facts about what Tommy likes! You can practise changing the size of words so that important words are the biggest.  Maybe the title could have been bigger?

Emily, I like the creative way you have placed your information about Tommy. Great work! Maybe you could add a title for your work.  

A book review by Karearea reading group

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?

Giant Stories

Today the boys and girls in Karearea reading group did some of their learning on the iPad.

They took photos of the giants and wrote about them.  They thought about whether all giants were the same or different.
