Delta the Flying Man!

Room 7 read an awesome story about Dan the Flying Man. We decided to create our own flying people. First we had to choose a landscape and try to draw it the same as it was on the book. Once Miss Donnell enlarged it, we drew over our lines with vivid to make them stand out. We coloured it in using pastels, making sure our colours matched the story. Miss Donnell took pictures of us "flying" outside and glued them onto our picture!

Auckland Museum Trip

On Wednesday we went to the Museum. I made an ‘ei. It

 was fun. I saw a dinosaur. 

2019 Art Exhibition

In Term 2 Room 7 have been studying native birds. We learnt lots about the kiwi bird and decided to make our own kiwi bird silhouettes.

First we practiced drawing kiwi birds in lots of different ways. Then Miss Donnell traced over our birds onto black paper. 

We made the bunting by using cotton balls and dye. It was fun making the bunting because we got to use warm and cool colours.

Check out the awesome art!

Writing in Room 7

Delta you have been trying really hard in writing this year. You are enthusiastic about writing and always try your best. Keep learning your alphabet letters and sounds, they will help you with your writing.

This is a copy of your draft writing book, a book you write in independently twice a week. You wrote a fantastic story during our sticker writing session.

Your thoughts on your writing: I like writing stories about playing. I am good at sounding out my words.

Fantail, fantail

Yesterday the zebra’s read a story about a fantail who likes to eat flies. We talked about the food that we like to eat and we made ourselves in fantails with these awesome headbands!

My Favourite Book

We have had such a great time visiting the Library and reading lots of different books this term. We love visiting Mrs Deadmarsh. We thought we would share our favourite stories that we like to read and why they are our favourites.

Uptown Funk!

For our whole school assembly, Room 7 decided to do a dance. Leo's mum Claire came in and taught us some great dance moves. We practiced every single day with Miss Donnell. This is our dress rehearsal in the auditorium. We feel super funky!

Delta you did a great job performing at assembly. You showed resilience when learning the moves and you kept trying. You had great enthusiasm and did a great job leading your line down into the starting position. Ka pai!
