End of Term 3 Teacher video

 We made it through another disrupted term! 

Mrs Burge, Miss Robertson and Miss Moa are so proud of how much progress you have made and how well we have adjusted to the new 'normal'. 

Miss Moa has had a wonderful practicum and is now gearing up to having her own class in 2021. Thank you for everything you have done for us. We will miss you so much. 

Have a wonderful holiday!

We are looking forward to enjoying the warmer weather in Term 4.

We will see you all soon. 

Talking on a telephone is communicating

We made telephones, we cut them out and added some ribbon for the cord. 

 

Try calling a friend and having a conversation during the holidays.

Communicating using Sign Language

 We have been learning how to sign the first letters of our name.

Look at how we sign it.

Can you sign the first letter of your name too?

Chinese dragon masks

 We made Chinese dragons in Room 9a with Miss Moa.

We loved making them and learning about Chinese Language during Chinese Language Week.

Goodbye Miss Moa - We will miss you

Goodbye Miss Moa, you have been an awesome teacher for the Room 9a children. 

We have loved having you.

Good luck on your teaching journey for 2021. 

We played some party games today like Musical statues, musical chairs, and corners. We had a lot of fun.

 

Crispy Kreme Doughnuts

 Today we thoroughly enjoyed the doughnuts from crispy Kreme to raise money for Starship to raise money for babies who are sick or hurt.

We all got to wear Crispy Kreme bakers hats which was fun. 

Spring is on it's way

 Spring is on it's way. We have painted some beautiful Cherry Blossom Trees because they are starting to flower right now. 

Have you seen the beautiful cherry blossom trees that have been planted in our new Chinese garden at the front of the school?

Writing a Postcard

 As part of our Inquiry we decided to write a postcard to a friend. 

Our postcards are handing in our classroom so we can read them.

Did you know that writing is a way of communicating with other people? 

You could send a postcard or a letter to a friend to communicate with them too. 

Communication - We can communicate by talking

 We talked to a friend. Miss Moa took our photos and added speech bubbles with what we said to each other. 

What would you say to your friend if you were talking to each other?
