Music Performance

Yesterday we had a music performance in the hall. I felt nervous but excited. My favourite part was the boom wackers! I don't want to do another performance again.

visiting willard home

Last Thursday our class visited Willard Home. I loved listening to Rebecca play the Violin. She played Jingle Bells.

When we visited Willard Home we read stories, sang Christmas songs and gave them our art work.

Everyone loved the violin. We had fun singing Christmas carols.

Last term New World gave us a bunch of their Little Garden plants in pots.

First we made them up by watering the seeds in the dirt.

We kept them inside for a little while, then we moved them outside.

We kept an eye on them and when they got too big for the pots we planted them in the garden.  We have to water them every second day.

 

Art in 2016

This year we created lots of art. My favourite was my self portrait painting because it looks just like me. Art makes me feel happy because it is fun to do art.

Chapter Chat

This year we did chapter chat. Chapter Chat is when you go on to twitter and we tweet together about the book we are reading. This year the books we have read were The Person Controller, Because of Winn Dixie, Charlotte's Web and The Magic Faraway Tree.  I loved all of them. But if I had to pick one favourite book it would be The Person Controller because it was funny. I liked making the trophy with Josh (pictured here). I liked doing chapter chat, I will miss doing it next year because I will be in year 5, and chapter chat is for years 3 and 4.

STEPS to Literacy

To help me with my reading and writing, I am doing STEPS to Literacy. These videos shoe me in action. I am improving each day. My goal is to get gold for each activity.
