08/11/11 Good Morning with Robert and Eddie

07/11/11 What's Going On in BD Class?

Today we had a nice surprise. Mr D was back! It seems like we haven't seen him for ages. Today Ryan and Holly were our Stars of the Day.

This morning we had a tricky letter to do for printing. We practised the letter "s". We tried to make it fit into the letter "o" because it starts in the same place. A lot of us got three stamps because we:

• started in the right place
• went in the right direction
• and made sure our "s" was sitting on the line.

We wrote about our weekend for writing time. We are really trying hard to write all the little words we know such as: I, is, to, the , go, and, in, went, got, we, he... quickly in our stories. Mr D thought we did a really good job of it too.

At reading time we did our new blend for the week. It is "fr". We came up with lots of "fr" words that we could use in our writing.

Busy, busy, busy. It has been one of those kind of days. Ella and Zachary were our Stars of the Day today.

For printing we were practising a whole lot of different letters. We tried: a,d,h and n.

For writing today we watched a You Tube clip about fireworks. It was really cool. We came up with lots of describing words to use in our writing.

In reading we looked at the sound that "dr" makes. We found lots and lots of words that started with that sound.

This afternoon we looked at some Koru Art. We learnt that the kowhaiwhai pattern comes from the fern frond.
