Room 18 Busy at Work

Dear Diary

MY first week at school was very fun. My teacher was very very nice she helped me with my work .We did some art work it was called a name bug or a name car we did a name car. I got a bit frustrated and cried. But when I got it finished it looked really cool. The next day we did cars. We needed to write our name 's on them and colour them in. I liked my one . We have 3 toys one is a polar bear and one is a care bear and a caterpillar. A few weeks later we did our self portraits. My one had a lime back ground and a red top, it looked just like me.

I was hoping that I was in Kate's class. When I got at school I was a bit nervous but I had fun . I cant wait until tomorrow to do lots of cool stuff. By

World Maths Day

Hello All,

We are going to get into World Maths Day which is coming up on March 4th 2009, yay... http://www.worldmathsday.com:80/ Click on this link to get to the site and your son/daughter would have brought home a laminated username and password to practise their skills in maths. Please let them have some time on the internet if that is possible to increase their speed and strategies in basic facts. The site is fantastic and they will get to play children from all over the world. Check it out and enjoy!!! Remember to let the children answer the questions or they will get to a level that is too hard if they're deemed to be an expert...

Enjoy

Dear Diary,

My first week of school was cool. On Monday we went to the library, I loved that because I am a bookworm. At the library we walked in and went over to sit on the stairs. We had a talk about where all the different kinds of books go. Then we had a talk about the rules. After that we all went off to look for two or less books. I found 'Bad, Bad Darlings' and the 'Jaquline Wilson' quiz book. When we all issued our books we went back to class.
On Tuesday we made some 'Name Cars', it's when we have to write our names, then copy them onto the other side. We had to make them identical. After you'd done that, you turned it into a car. They turned out looking awsome. On Wednesday at the end of the day we played SEAWEED. Mahia, George, Jacob and I were in at the start we didn't do so well but when we got near the end we rocked their socks. On Thursday we did our first session of reading we did three activitieys there was computers, reading with Whaea Kate and playing 21 with cards. On Friday I wrote this story. I had a great week.
