This week we have been working on Christmas activities. Look at my slide.

 We enjoy practising our basic facts each day using Prototec.  We also try and beat the clock on paper throughout the year.  Here is my Term 4 results.  I am proud of being fast at Stage 2-3.

People and animals

 I made a special animal and people slide at home and at school. I was learning to be nice to animals and take care of them. 

Caving and Glow Worms work

 We learned lots when we were on our camp and wanted to share these with Team Maunga before they go on their trip.  For reading and writing we have been busy creating things to help Team Maunga.  Here is my work on Caving and glow worms..  

I worked with Ivy and Neva.

The best part was working with my friends

I hope you enjoy.
