What A Fun Week!

Hi Whanau

We had an amazing week at school this week and wanted to share some of our highlights. Check out the slideshow below to see some of what we got up to.




Have a lovely long weekend!

Samoan Language Week

Malo Families

This week is Samoan Language week and so to celebrate we have made our own colourful tapa cloth. We first cut out the leaf pattern and then glued it onto the square background. Some of us decorated our squares with beautiful patterns and some of us decided that we liked it the way it was.

What do you think?

Subtraction Tower Challenge

Hi Whanau

Today we did a subtraction challenge. We each had towers of 20 blocks and had to beat our buddies to get to zero by rolling the dice and taking that number away. It was lots of fun! Some of us even challenged ourselves even more by starting with 30 and then 60 blocks.

Thank you Mrs Madden for sending us the Subtraction Tower Challenge we loved it!

Back To School

Hi Room 22 Students and Families

We have had an awesome week back at school this week and are excited for next week.

Happy Friday Morning Room 22

We have our very last Google Meet today at 2:00pm. You will get to see what the classroom looks like before you come into school on Monday because I will be in our classroom for the meeting. 

I hope you are all very excited to come back to school, I know I am! I can't wait to see all of your beautiful faces and give you air high 5s. 

Today there is no challenge. You can pick one of the learning activities that you want to do and then share it with me. You could even bring it with you on Monday to share with the class!

Have a great day!

Good Morning Room 22

We are getting closer and closer to go back to school. I hope you are all excited! I will be going into school on Friday to make sure our class is all ready for us when we all come in on Monday.

When we come back to school you will all have your own desk and chair to sit at and your own place to put your school bag. You will also need to have a clean tin or pencil case to put some pencils in that only you will be using.

Today I have not set a learning challenge. I want you to blow me away with whatever learning activity you choose to do. I can't wait to see what it is that you have chosen.



Have a wonderful day!

Yesterday Jacinda Ardern announced that we will all get to go back to school next week on Monday. I hope your excited, I know I am.

We have our Google Meet sessions this morning at 10:00-10:30am and 10:30-11:00am with Frida, Emme, Ava, William and Jackson H sharing in the first session, and Carl, Jerry, Kayden and Kiyaan sharing in the second session. I wonder what news they will share with us?

Today your learning challenge is from our Maths slide on our distance learning slideshow. We are going to make paper chains. I wonder how long you can make yours? How many pieces of paper do you think you will use? Can you hang it around your home? Can you use it to measure things around your home?




If your not sure how to make a paper chain check out these instructions from wikihow.com

Have a great day.

It has been wonderful seeing some of your beautiful faces on our Google Meets and hearing all about your news. You have all had exciting things to share and have done a great job asking and answering questions of each other.

Today I challenge you to be CURIOUS. Let's use our growth GEM and find out how many steps it takes to walk around our houses. I wonder how many steps it will take me to walk around my house? When I find out, I will put the answer in the comments below.




Don't forget to keep sending me pictures and videos of your learning. It is amazing to see you all be creative and do different things to keep your brain and your GEMS growing.

Today we are going to look at the Reading slide from our distance learning slideshow and visit the scholastic learn at home website. You will need to first click on 'grades 1-2', then go to 'week 4' and scroll down to 'day 17'. Day 17 is all about squirrels!

I am sure you will have lots of fun learning about squirrels. I wonder if you can even make a poster with all of the information that you learnt? I'm sure you can.



I look forward to seeing you during our Google Meets today. The first session is 10:00-10:30am and the second session is at 10:30-11:00am. You can join these even if you are not sharing news.

Thank you to all of the students who sent me through pictures of your beautiful koru art. You have all worked hard and thought about the size, shape and colours of you koru. Some of you even added in some cool patterns. Great Job!

Your learning challenge today is from our  maths slide on our distance learning slideshow, It's to set up a pretend shop. You can sell whatever you like! As a shop keeper you will need to think about what to sell, how much money it will cost your customers and how you will count your money. Have fun!




Don't forget, I will be sending your mummies and daddies a link to enter the video meeting 10 minutes before the first session begins at 10:00am and this link can also be used to access the second session at 10:30am.

I hope to see you soon in our Google Meets. Have an awesome day!

Happy Monday morning! I hope you all had a lovely weekend. Tell me about one thing you enjoyed doing on the weekend in the comments below (don't forget to add your name).

This morning I challenge you to work on your fine motor skills by sketching and drawing some koru. This is on the Te Reo Maori slide from our Distance Learning slideshow. You can even do one for each member of your family like this:

Tomorrow we start our first two Google Meet sessions. One at 10:00-10:30am and the second one at 10:30-11:00am. Some children have been invited to share some of their learning or something special to them. I wonder what they will share.

Check out this do's and don't's poster to make sure we are all doing the right thing on the video meetings.


I hope you have a wonderful day.
