We love weaving








We learnt to weave.
First we got a black piece of paper and made four cuts.
Next we got five strips of different coloured paper.
Then we wove the first strip over and under, over and under.
The next strip went under and over, under and over.
We did this until we had used all the strips.
Do you like our weaving?

Red Nose day


On Friday we had a mufti day to raise money for Red Nose Day.  We had to wear something red, bring a gold coin and the big girls painted our noses red.
The money raised was for the sick children.

Naumai and Forbes were using the tens frames and counters to practice making doubles.  Aren't they clever!

At School Maths

This week it is Maths week.
We decided to solve our daily problem by using doubles, even though we knew it wasn't the fastest way.
We love to solve problems using doubles!

We decided to use our doubles knowledge and Tamahau knew 7+7 was 14.
Then we had to add the extra 2 people.
Talib knew that 4+2 was 6 so that meant that 14+2 had to be 16.

We are learning lots of ways to solve our addition problems.
