Wetas!
Over the last few weeks Room 7 has been inquiring into insects. Last week we decided to make a giant weta. The children worked together to problem solve what materials to use, how to construct and decorate it so it looked like a real weta. The children have become weta 'experts' and have been eagerly sharing their knowledge with visitors to our class.

Daffodil Day and Mrs Bartlett's Birthday
What a busy day today! Not only was it Daffodil Day, but it was also Mrs Bartlett's birthday. Before the Daffodil Day concert, Room 7 made her a birthday card and delivered it wearing our Daffodil Day head bands. We also sang Mrs Bartlett 'Happy Birthday'. Yes, Room 7 is the cutest class in the school!
Many thanks to all the parents who were able to come and support their children and Daffodil Day.

Tennis Ball Maths!
Mrs Rush was given a whole lot of tennis balls by Koru Tennis Club. She had a problem that she needed our help with. She wanted to know how many tennis balls there were so she could work out how many to give to her teacher friends.
We started to count them in ones but there were so many, and we got interrupted and mixed up. We problem solved and decided to put them into groups of ten. We all took turns at making groups of ten. Mrs Rush helped us to count in tens. There were 232 tennis balls!

It's My Bread!
This week we read the books 'It's My Bread', 'The Little Red Hen' and our shared poem 'I Like My Bread.
On Friday we made toast. While we waited for the toaster we chose our topping. Then we spread the topping on the toast. Next we sat with our buddy and ate our toast. Yum!
There will be more photos displayed in Room 7 next week.

'Rumpus at the Vet'
Over the last couple of weeks Room 7 has had an animal care area set up in class. This was based on the books 'Rumpus at the Vet' and 'Greedy Cat and the Sneeze'.
A big thank you to Mrs Rush's daughter Melissa, who gave us many of the resources for this activity.
