Shopping for Sunday
On Wednesday I bought some jeans and two pairs of shorts and a pair shoes at the mall. It was me and Mum shopping.
I will wear them to my first communion on Sunday. It is also a special week for me because it is my birthday on Tuesday!

Rosie's Puppies
Fern's Puppies
The day Fern had her puppies was a nice and sunny day. I was going to friend Lily's house when Lucy, Lily's mum, got a call from Dad that Fern had had two puppies. We had to turn and go back to my house. I was so excited. When we got there Dad said that Fern had had her puppies in my tree hut. The puppies felt warm, wet and fragile. One hour went by then I saw a see-through blue bubble and I could see the shape of a puppy. A few more hours went by and we had seven puppies. Dad had to get up in the middle of the night and help the runt drink from Fern properly. If he hadn't helped the puppy she would have died.
Three weeks went by and every puppy had their name. The runt is called Skinny Malink and the others are called Brownie McGee, Young Drumble, Nike, Stripes, Tui, and Harry Potter. I am enjoying having puppies. Fern and the family will deeply miss them when they go.

Work on Words: Free Rice
This is a great way to build your vocabulary at the same time as giving rice to the hungry.
Work your way through the words. Remember to write any extra special or 'magical words' in your own personal dictionary.

Let's get ready for Term 2
Last term we learned how to work as a team. We know how to choose good targets and have worked towards achieving them. In the last week of term, we took a risk and ran KidsAKO workshops for Rooms 3 & 8. It was MAGIC! You can do anything.
I am thinking we are ready to do something even more amazing. I wonder what it could be....

What's up for this term:
Writing - instructions, explanations & movie / workshop scripts
Reading - heaps of information books and even more books of your own choice
Maths - moving into multiplication & division, measurement
Te Reo - days & months, counting over 10, telling the time, my birthday
Science: What is a scientist? What do they do? Lots of experiments!
ICT: Explain Everything, Movie making, Twitter, Blogging
Learning: Targets, planners, independence, AKO - Kids Cafe
Aaahhh - I know we have heaps of exciting thing to do and learn together during Term 2. I bet you have lots of ideas for us as well. I can't wait to hear them. :)
KidsAKO - next step on - Kids Cafe
Check this out Team. We have the chance to run workshops for children from all over the WORLD! It is called Kids Cafe.
We sign up and you decide on something you would love to make a workshop on. You would need to plan and record it so it could be put 'on-line' for all the other kids to access. Then we would have a Kids Cafe session and learn lots from each other!
Check out the links and start thinking about what you could teach people!
The twitter and blog links are in our Favourite Blog list!
Write a note on the Padlet to share what ideas you have for a Kids Cafe workshop.

Eco Action: Lunchtime Seed Saving
Check out one of the lunch-time workshops run by the ECO Team. We were gathering sunflower seeds from Allana's old dead flowers.
We labelled the packets and illustrated them so we would remember what was in the packet.
We then wrote the instructions on the back so we know how to plant them next spring.
We are looking forward to seeing lots of sunflowers visiting school next year after they flower.

Well done to ECO Team Leader Maya for helping organise and manage this activity.
Daily 5 for teachers
Yippee - Alice and I taught the teachers about Daily 5 today. They loved the photos and videos you took last term and looked at all the resources you use and your 'Wild Reader's Notebooks'.
I am sure that we will have lots of teachers visiting our class to see what Daily 5 looks like in real life! They are all really excited and want to try it with their own classes. Well done team - Daily 5 rocks!
