Week 3, Term 2

This week in Renwick 3 we have been learning about the letter 'p'. As a special treat we made popcorn. We used all of our senses. We could hear the crazy popping sound, smell the delicious aromas, feel the rubbery and spongy texture, it looked like fluffy white clouds and it tasted delicious!

We had another super time with our buddies in Room 3 this week. We raced around the school grounds looking for all sorts of different surfaces which we could use for rubbings using paper and crayons. We have created some lovely art work with our findings.

Next week...
It is hard to believe tht next week is Week 4 already!
Our letters will be 'n' and 'c' or 'z' and 'w'. Our words are my, you and can.
During Maths time we will be focusing on ordering numbers.
We are extremely lucky to have secured half hour time slots for all the Kowhai Syndicate classes for Drama with Jo. It is part of our 'Friday Funday' activities and the children love it!
Please also note that Friday is our library day. Children are able to have one book issued for the week but it must be returned by the following Friday in order to take out a new book. Kindly help your child to bring back their book before Friday.
As part of our 'Saving the Planet' topic we are in the process of arranging a trip to the Refuse Station in Tahuna. This will allow the children to see what happens to the recycling once it is on the trucks. The children already seem to have an impressive amount of knowledge about reducing our waste and recycling which is fantastic.
Have a happy week!
