I am a Marble Maker

LI - to talk about my ideas

After reading the story ‘The Marble Maker’, Room 2 has made a beautiful marble using salad spinner and paint. We also talked about feelings and how we feel after making the piece of art. Did we feel proud? Do I love my marble? What does the colours make me feel?

Lucky Dip Maths

LI - count all the counters one by one

I am learning to count using the counters and form the correct number on the whiteboard. I loved playing with the lucky dip maths game.

Phonics time!

LI - to recognise the first sound of a word

In Room 2 we are trying our best to sound out the sounds that we hear in a word. The word queen begins with a q, volcano begins with v, kangaroo begins with k and zoo begins with z! Look at my beautiful forming of the letters.

Patterns

For maths, I am learning to recognise a pattern. A pattern repeats over and over again. It needs to stay the same. I have tried making my own pattern. Can you try and make my pattern longer?

My Writing Book

LI - to write some sounds I can hear in a sentence

In Room 2, I am learning to say a sentence and then write my sentence down. I am learning to use the alphabet card to find the sounds or the word I am using in my sentence. I am also learning that a sentence has a full stop and words need finger spaces between them. Here’s my amazing work!

Welcome to Room 2!

This is my blog. There will be lots of learning going on this year in Room 2 and I am ready to learn. 

Shape Pictures

We are learning to recognise 2d shapes in every day life.

Room 0 have been busy exploring shapes in a range of different ways.  One activity we did was to choose a range of 2d shapes and put them together to create a picture.  By doing this nga tamariki are able to see how shapes can be seen all around us every day.
