Yoga

We started today with some yoga stretching and balancing. We made some great poses like dolphins, starfish and seagulls. We also surfed and turned ourselves into palm trees! It was a great way to start the day.

Well done Jayden

Jayden got our class certificate at assembly today for writing some high frequency words all by himself in his writing book this week! Ka pai Jayden!!

Core exercises

Today we had a Room 22 boot camp! We did exercises like passing a ball with no hands, backwards sit ups and kicking sitting down to build our core strength. It is important for us to have a strong core so that we can sit up nice and straight and concentrate when we are on the mat.

The double Jump Jam Stars are ....

Cherry and Mira!
It was too hard to pick today. These two girls did their best at jump jam to move and jump and shake! Ka pai girls.

Mr Munchy and Mrs Crunchy

We have two new helpers in our class.. MONSTERS!!!
Mr Munchy LOVES to eat words and Mrs Crunchy just LOVES to eat letters!
They help us to find them in the classroom. Mr Munchy has been helping us find and eat 'the' and 'like' and Mrs Crunchy helped us today and ate lots of the letter 'u'.  I wonder what they will want for lunch tomorrow?
Below: Mr Munchy with Zac and Mrs Crunchy with Kayla.
                                          

Reminder from Room 3

Calling all helpers!

This Saturday is the Arahoe School PSG Gala day! There will be lots of exciting activities, games, food and things to buy.

Each class has been asked to have a parent helper to help for a couple of hours on the day to make everything go smoothly. This event is put on to fundraise for resources and equipment used by our kids ( for example the computer suit and playgrounds)

So, if you think this is you please comment below or email Imogen and I. We would be very grateful for any help:)

Thanks
Sarah ( Miss Black)

Mrs Hoffman

Mrs Hoffman has been coming in and filling in for Miss Black every Tuesday morning, while she finished her Beginning Teacher programme. Miss Black has now officially become a fully registered teacher (yay) so Mrs Hoffman will no longer be visiting us :-(

Thank you very much Mrs Hoffman from everyone in Room 22!!!!

Blog Comments

It has come to our attention that it has been tricky to leave a comment on the blog if you are not a user. We have now changed it so everyone should be able to.

Happy commenting!
