Term 2

In Geometry we have been learning about shapes. Here is our mural of Rm 14's ZOO OF SHAPES. We had a lot of fun using squares, ovals, triangles, squares, rectangles, pentagons and hexagons to make animals.

There were peacocks, elephants, pigs, cats, caterpillars, mice, lions, tucans, pelicans, butterflies and ladybirds at our zoo!

Popping Popcorn!

We made a class book about the steps we took to pop popcorn! It is in our classroom for us to read! It was crunchy! It was very yummy to eat!

Botanics for lunch!

We have a map of Central Nelson on our wall in Room 14. We use it to see where we are going for our walks.


We walked to the Botanics to have lunch and play in the Autumn leaves!
Everyone bet Vairi in the running race!
We made a pile of leaves as tall as Lesley!

Wild, Wet, Windy Wednesday



It was windy at my aunty’s house and her power line fell down. My grandad’s ute nearly got crushed but it didn’t. A big tree nearly fell over on it and it will have to be cut down. Levi

On Wednesday the wind was thumping and thundering, and ripping off roofs. It was a heck of a windy day. I thought it was a whistly Wednesday. Saffron

Sh…sh…sh…sh…sh…sh…sh…sh…sh…sh…sh…went the wind up-rooting the trees. When I fell over I said, “Mum help me! It is so windy!” “I know!” said mum. The next day I said to mum, “Can I have another umbrella?” and she said, “OK.” I said, “Yay!” Madison

WILD WET WINDY WEDNESDAY

When I looked outside at the beach the waves were crashing and bashing on the rocks. It was wild and exciting, windy and noisy.

On Wednesday there was a big stom. I was not at school all the day because the gusty wind blew the door shut and it jammed my finger. It hurt a lot. I went to the sick bay and later my mum came and picked me up and took me home. I was watching TV and suddenly the power went off.

Wild wet windy Wednesday.
The wild wind whacking the windows.
Our power did not come back until teatime.
A rubbish bin flew out to sea.

Wild, wet, windy Wednesday
Hear the rain pitter-patter,
Out comes a rainbow.
See the clouds going away,
I put my wet brolly down
And go to town.

On Wednesday it was whistly week because it was windy and whistling. It was ripping off roofs. Whisss! Whosss! went the howling wind and rain. The electricity went off. It was dark and scary at my dad’s house. We had to have candles. By Grace.

About 7 days ago there was a big storm. It up-rooted trees. It felt like a black hole was destroying Earth. I was scared. Finlay

Discovering Nelson

Wild, wet, windy Wednesday
Whistle, whistle, whistle
Trees falling down in front of me,
See the branches whirl around
Dropping down to the ground.
