"Yesterday we went to a Marae and we had to sit in the Whare Nui. Then we had some kai." (Chamae)
"On Tuesday I went to Takapuwahia Marae. I had kai in the Whare Kai. I played lots of games like singing the haka." (Baxter)
"This is called about a Marae. The place I went to first was called the Whare Nui. I ate in the Whare Kai. It was yummy, really yummy. I sang a lovely song. I played nicely with the Mana College School people. They are nice, really nice. They had lots of cool activities for us to do. My favourite activity was counting to seven in Maori. It was fun." (Caitlyn M)
Then we came back to school and Miss Rowe showed us how to use the Ipads. We played heaps of cool games that can help us with our maths, art, spelling and reading.
We are continuing to work with place value for maths. Here are another two links that will help us practice at home. Have a go!
On Thursday we read a story called "Oh, the thinks you can think!" We then had to think of our own crazy ideas by using our imagination. We are so good at using our imagination in MR class. Here are two examples of what we did.
To finish off our week we did some fabulous artwork. Miss Rowe was so proud of us! Come in and check it out next week. Here is a little sneak peak.
See you all at the disco tonight in your party gears! Woohooo! :)
