Patterns in our classroom

We have been looking for patterns around our classroom.  

Here are some of the patterns we found...

Here we are making some of our own repeating patterns. 

Maths- Algebraic Patterns

Yesterday we were 'tuning in' to our new Maths strand- Algebraic Patterns

Here we are having a go at making our own repeating patterns. All Miss Macklow said was, "I wonder what you can do with these materials, using your mathematical thinking."
Look at what we came up with.

Principal's Awards

Congratulations to Emma and Coll for receiving the Principal's awards this week and last week. You have both been very focused on your learning and showing a lot of Aroha, Resilience, Excellence and Respect.

Coll- you are a focused learner and a kind member of Room 20. You show Aroha, Resilience, Respect and Excellence.

Te Reo- A Haka Ma (the Maori alphabet)

Today we started to learn the Maori Alphabet/ A Haka Ma.
We had lots of fun learning the sounds and decided that we would like to have the video up on the Blog so that we could practise at home.
