Back to routine..

Production
After our busy week we are back to our normal routine! Last week was full of production, production, production! Miss Rowe and all our parents were so proud of us! We danced, sung and acted so well! 

Halloween
Yesterday was Halloween! We read lots of Halloween poems and made some Halloween ghosts. They tasted YUMMY! After we made our white, scary, eatable ghosts we had to write down the ingredients and instructions so that somebody could make them that didn't know how. This is what they turned out like…




Hanawiti (sandwiches)
We have been learning lots of Maori words and phrases in MR class. Yesterday we made hanawiti (sandwiches) but we were only allowed to talk in Maori!!! We got to choose what we wanted in our sandwich and our options were ham (mīti),  lettuce (rētihi), cheese (tīhi) and tomato. We also had to know the words plate (pereti), knife (naihi), butter (pata) and bread (parāoa).  We had to tell Miss Rowe what we wanted by saying Homai te.. (pass the) and then we would say the ingredient! We all did extremely well and were so confident! Maybe you could try making a hanawiti at home!







Marble Jar
MR class filled up their marble jar! Wohooo! For our reward we asked if we could have a play on the senior playground! This was very special. Here are some of the pictures.








Grandparents Day!
We had grandparents day on Wednesday. We were so lucky to have Chamae and Mason’s grandparents come in. We asked them lots of questions about what it was like at school when they were seven years old. We learnt lots and noticed that it was so different to our school.. They didn't have computers and IPads! We quite like the way school is now- we are pretty lucky!!!

Jewellery
Today Sophie had some very special news. Her mum let her borrow some of her jewellery making set. Miss Rowe and Sophie had a challenge to see who could make the nicest necklace. Sophie was an expert but they both turned out very awesome! We have some very clever kids in our class!






Have a great weekend!!! :-)
