Writing a Different Way

This week some of us tried writing a story on the i pad. It was fun because we had to find the letters on the keyboard. For some of us, it was the first time we had ever used the space bar!  We tried really hard with our spelling. We read our stories over the top so you can hear what we wrote. 
We will get better and better at this the more we practice.

Here is Alex's soccer story:



Here is Leona's story about the class baby:



Here is Jeremy's story about the playground:


Tu Meke!



Things you may have Missed! (Assembly and Fathers Day)

First of all - we did an awesome job at assembly a few weeks ago.  Mrs driver posted a cute video to the school Facebook page. Click here to see it.

This another video (of the same thing) that someone else took for us. 
We are working hard here in Team 8 to save our Earth for future generations!


Also, a (very belated) HAPPY FATHERS DAY to all the father figures out there. Team 8 love you very much. Mrs Turner is sorry she didn't post this on Fathers Day, she wasn't feeling too good and forgot. We hope you got spoilt on your special day. xx


You Rock Team 8!

Science in van and the Spikey Mat

On Tuesday we were lucky enough to have Science in a Van come and share their amazing science knowledge with us.
Team 8 learnt about FRICTION and also about PUSH and PULL FORCE. Ask team 8 about it and we can tell you what we learnt.



Push!

Pull

Push the Troll!


Here are some of the photos to show the fun we had.
As you can see Miss Fullard had to sit on a chair of NAILS!!!!!  Ouch!!!  Miss Fullard did not want to sit on it, but was very brave and decided to give it a go. 
Team 8 wanted to know what it felt like. Lucky Mrs Clyde had a spiky mat that we could use to try it out.
We talked a lot and did lots of discussion about what it might feel like. Then a few of us decided to give it a go. Aamniah got to try it out first because it was her birthday!!!



Come in and read all the amazing words that we came up with for Oral Language!
