We love to write in Room 7. Come on in and look at our books any time

Just click on the photos to enlarge

Our picture plans help us to organise our ideas.

We are learning to sound out words.

We successfully orgainise our planning space and we are learning to use our rulers to achieve this.

We take time to read our writing, self edit our writing and conference with Mrs. Robertson.

Sometimes we celebrate and share our great writing with Mrs Sutherland and Mrs Warren.

We are aware that our phonics and spelling programmes support our writing.
Teacher "How did you know how to write, off?"
Child "Because it was my spelling word one day"

Our Canterbury Cricket Session

Fielding and batting, as well as a Canterbury Cricket pack to take home. What a great day.

LWB handwriting books needed

The children in Room 7 all need one more LWB because we are all so fabulous and committed to practising our handwriting. Please supply as soon as you can :)

Our Ice Castles

Thank you to everyone who contributed to a fun and succesfull morning. Your support was amazing. Our buddies from Room 24 visited before morning tea to see our wonderful creations. I hope you enjoy reading the fantastic book that is going home with the class leader about our very own ice castle fairy tale.

Spring is coming and we want to make ice castles ????

Monday September 1

Yes, can you believe it we want to make ice castles. This has come about from our published fairy tales that we created about an ice castle. The class leader is bringing the book home each day.

You can help by making lots of ice cubes of different shapes and sizes over the weekend and bringing them to school on Monday in an ice bag or small chilly bin.

We would also love your help. If you are keen to help first up on Monday morning please stay around after our morning greeting time and we will get straight into it.

Things that we need...

• Rubber or plastic small fairies
• Rubber of plastic small monsters, like in the image
• Small plastic dinosaurs or dragons
• Lots of flat plastic trays
• Ice cubes
