Our Buddy Class is Room 19.

Our buddy class is Room 19, they are awesome. I played soccer with Uvin and I got a score, Uvin got a score and even his friends did too. When me and Uvin were playing with the ball on the hill I accidentally kicked the ball on Soowon. I said sorry to Soowon and then he said it doesn't matter so we played again.

A long time ago we did an assembly. My buddy is Pippi. She used the microphone. Pippi and I did some hula hooping and skipping on the field. We go on the computer and do drawing and we also share our poems. - Elsa

We love playing badminton!!

We were really lucky to have Melissa from North Harbour Sport come and teach us how to play badminton last week. We had to pretend we were making pancakes and to bounce our brightly coloured 'pancakes' on our racquets. We had a lot of fun and only one balloon (oops 'pancake') was burst in our session.

Spiderwebs!!

As well as doing a spider dance at the Junior assembly we made spaghetti spiderwebs with our buddy class. We really appreciated their help as it was quite a tricky job to make sure all the pieces were connected and to get them looking like real spiderwebs!

White Hat Thinking

"A butterfly comes out of a chrysalis"- Eric

     We have been using Edward De Bono's Thinking Hats to   discuss facts about butterflies.

"A butterfly drinks nectar from the flower. A caterpillar turns into a chrysalis and then a butterfly." - Jack

Using Kidpix

Some of us have been able to draw a picture of ourselves using the Kidpix programme on our classroom computers. We have to be very careful to hold the pen steady to make our lines straight.
