05/12/11 What's Going On in BD Class?

Today got off to a bit of a rainy start. But it was good to be back at school. We welcomed Niamh to school and she was also our Star of the Day.

We did our maths and writing this morning. In maths we are learning about counting backwards. We are trying to remember the pattern of: 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 then a ten or "ty" number. 

We are still working on writing our beginning, middle and end sounds for writing. We did pretty well today.

For reading we did our next blend. It is "spl". Now are getting really tricky!

We won't be having our Kapa Haka performance tonight because the weather is bad. We did a dress rehearsal for the kindy kids today. We sounded great.
