Busy! Busy! What have we been up to?

 Term 2 is full on already!

Here are some photo collages of some activities and learning we've been doing...

   We listened to paramedic Kylie from St John's. We found out that children our age have lots of accidents so we learned some ways to be safe. Here we are practicing how to bandage an injury. Philip won the first aid kit for respectful listening and answering Kylie's questions. 

Don't forget to comment below if you remember some ways to be safe or if you know the bandaging steps. 

Previous Highlights

Here are some pictures of us at the cross country, visiting the town library, enjoying the fire truck visit, improving our relay skills with Room 9, fun in the native bush, posting our letters and enjoying the animations that Room 9 created on their chrome books, Kapa haka and Matariki construction craft...Phew! We've done lots. Can you see which picture matches?

 We are getting ready for our Matariki Art rotations.

Kingston has been trialing a whirlygig design.

Using Chromebooks

Last week we borrowed Room 1's Chromebooks to have a go at creating our own Google Drawing telling people about us. First we named our work. Then we took a photo of ourselves and we wrote our name on our canvas. We wrote about ourselves and we got to change the colour of the background. We got to change the colour of our words and change the font to make our writing look fancy.

We are getting ready for our performance!

Our creations

 We drew a background picture then we took a photo of our background and put it in Google Slides. Then we took a photo of us and we edited the photo and removed the background. We put our photo of us onto the photo of our background. 

Then we wrote a story to go with our pictures.
