Star Writer

Today Mrs Nathan gave Kasslin a challenge.  She asked her to think of a different story starter, instead of I went to.  Kasslin wrote about Greedy Cat instead.  She wrote two sentences and finished with an exclamation mark!

Keep up the great work Kasslin!

Star Writer

Today Isaac L took his great writing to Mrs Dawson.  He was able to hear most of the sounds he needed for his story.  Keep trying hard Isaac!

Star Writers

On Monday Laki and Kasslin took their writing to Mrs Dawson.

Kasslin knew where to look for the words she needed.  

She found them in her reading book and on the wall.

Laki listened hard for the sounds he needed.

Great work you two!

Star Writers

Today Kasslin and Kepu used their letter sound knowledge to write their stories.  They were both able to hear most of the sounds they needed and to use the butterfly card to find words.

Keep up the great work!

I for Insect

Today Sacha brought an insect to school.  It was a green grasshopper.

We wrote a story about it.  Look at all the sounds we were able to hear!

Welcome to Room 11 2015!

Welcome to Room 11 2015!
We are very excited to be starting a new year with some new whanau and some old friends.

This is where we like to share all our good learning and exciting things we do at school.  Please take the time to leave a comment for your children as they get very excited when they know you are visiting our page.  The instructions on how to leave a comment can be found on the right of each page.


We are very excited to share the great writing from two of our boys who have only been at school for one week!

Krishnav and Monaro have worked hard to find words they know and record the sounds they hear.  They have even remembered to start with a capital letter and ended with a fullstop.  What a fantastic start to the year!

Story Writing

Today Room 11 were all Super Star Writers.  We were able to help Mrs Nathan hear all the sounds in her story.  We are learning to write the suffixes -ed and -er because that sneaky -e is just too hard to hear.

Larenz and Kahlany were Super Writers.  They went to show their writing to Mrs Dawson because they have learnt to sound out the words they need by themselves.  Keep it up!

Story writing from this week.

Here are some samples of the hard work we have been doing this week in Room 10 during story writing time.
