Welcome back to school! 100 days of school celebrations - while Room 6 haven't been at school for 100 days, there is no way that we are going to miss out on the celebrations! Making 100 on the new turf - we are in one of the zeroes.
We dressed up like 100-year-olds. Glamorous grannies, beards, glasses, walking sticks.
Help in the following areas would be greatly appreciated by Room 6:
construction materials - clean packaging - paper towel rolls, boxes, egg cartons, tape etc;
collage materials for Term 3's art unit - coloured paper, magazines, tissue paper, fabric pieces (small), wool, string, tin foil, natural materials (maybe we will collect these closer to the time so that they don't clog up the classroom), anything else that could be glued on;
a parent helper to put away reading books - maybe after drop off in the morning or at 2:45 before you collect your child, once a week;
a parent helper to hear children read
Please let me know if you are able to assist in the role of parent help. There is a form that we need to sort out.

Materials needed:
Room 6 would really like some recycled boxes/packaging for construction (boxes, cardboard rolls, clean containers).

Matariki - Maori New Year - begins every year as the Matariki constellation of stars becomes visible again after a short disappearance from the night sky. This usually occurs near the end of May or beginning of June. It is also thought to begin, more specifically, at the new moon after the constellation becomes visible again.
We have been looking at the phases of the moon and have a homework activity where we record when we see each phase of the moon.
Nau mai, Haere mai Kate. Welcome to Room 6! Cross country is scheduled for Tuesday 9 June. 11am-1pm. Letter of the week: rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Room 6 gave the cross country a good go! Well done.
