Funky Town in Fabulous Room 8!

We have been working hard to make sure our Funky Town dance for Ground Celebration is super. We practice our dance every day and we are getting better and better. We love keeping fit and moving our body to music!

Pohutakawa

Today we drew Pohutakawa flowers.
They are special flowers because they grow on NZ's special Christmas tree.
You will see them at the beach in summer.

Drum Set - Dylan is super awesome!

The drums were loud but it was ok because we were having lots of fun. When we were dancing we had to copy Dylan. The teachers were dancing. Miss Dee was shaking her head. It looked silly. He had drum sticks in his hand. It was cool and funky.

Today we have been learning about zero. We counted from ten down to zero and blasted off like rockets! We watched a Sesame Street podcast about the number zero. It was funny when Cookie Monster ate the number zero. Miss Dee asked us funny questions and every time the answer was zero!


I am a rocket down on the ground, waiting quietly without a sound.
Light the fuse on my toe.
Ready for take off....
10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, 0
BLAST OFF!
Here I go!

Saying Haere Ra to Mohamed

Today is Mohamed's last day in Room 8. He is going to  live in Australia where his dad works.
We will  miss you Mohamed but we  hope that you  have fun in Australia. Don't forget your gorgeous orange sunglasses to keep the sun out of your eyes in Australia!

Dirty Bertie

In Room 8 we love sharing stories. 


Today we read Dirty Bertie. He picked a bogey. He ate a dirty lollypop. The bogey was squidgy. The bogey was scrunchy. The bogey was sticky.


We liked the story. It was funny.

Yummy yogurt!

Yesterday we ate yoghurt. It looked sticky. It looked nice and smooth. We put it into a bowl. It smelled like strawberries.It was cold. It was in the fridge. It was red and a little bit pink like a strawberry. These are pictures of us pretending to eat yoghurt!
