Our Last Days Together

We had a big classroom move from Room 3 to Room 2 so we were all very excited.  Mrs Ray was spoiled rotten with lovely gifts and special pictures and cards which she LOVED.  We enjoyed our time together and made some neat Christmas crafts including: wrapping paper and cards for our profiles, that we are giving to our parents as gifts.  

We have had the best year together and have learnt so much!  We will all miss each other but look forward to catching up in 2016. 

Delilah and Olivia are leaving Pukete and we will miss them loads.  Good luck gorgeous girls!  

Merry Christmas!!!! Happy Holidays!!!!   XO Mrs Ray

Magazine Christmas Trees

Today we made Christmas trees from magazines with some very special folding.  We had to use the virtue of patience as it took along time to fold every page three times, to make our trees. We had a lovely time together as a class for the last full day of 2015. 

 

Grandparents/Special Person Day

On Tuesday we had a very full classroom!  We were very lucky to have 17 Grandparents and Special People join us for an hour in our room.  We read a story, introduced our guests, then had a big circle time with questions about what life was like when they went to school.  After that we made some special Christmas frames together to hang on our tree.  We all went out to eat lunch together on the field, like a big picnic.  We are all so lucky to have such special people in our lives and loved sharing our time with you in Room 3.  

Christmas in Room 3

When we arrived at school on Tuesday the 1st of December there was a cute wee Christmas tree and even an advent calendar!! We have written letters to Santa too so hope he gets them in time. Exciting times. 

Look at Carol sorting out all our writing books from this year! 

Drawing a Teddy Bear

We have learnt how to draw two different types of teddy bears, one using sketching and shading and the other following instructions and drawing.  Here is the video's we used and some photos of Room 3 artists.

Congratulations to Ocean for having the closest jelly bean guess.  There were 1072 jelly beans in the jar!!!! 

Marble Run and Hopscotch Fun

Yesterday we made a marble run as a class from recycled items Abi brought to school.  We had to try and work as a team to make it.....look what we made!
