Today the Pigs reading group went on a worm hunt. We looked in the garden but could not find any wriggly worms. Then we read our book called Looking at Worms. Ka pai book worms!
Room 21 is a Year One class at Arahoe School in New Lynn, Auckland, Aotearoa New Zealand. This blog is where we show our family and friends what we are learning at school. We also have links that help our learning at home, as well as at school. We have notices here, and you can always check out the blog if you need to know something. You can also make comments or ask questions. Thanks for visiting our blog. Ka kite ano! Room 18

GARDEN DONATIONS WELCOME
We are going to set up a potted garden outside our class. If anyone has any spare plastic planters, potting mix or seedlings we would welcome any donations. Just bring them to Room 21.
Parent helpers are welcome to join us this Friday as well as we work in the gardens after lunch as our Friday fun factor! We will be weeding, mulching, watering and doing some planting.

ARTY SMARTY
Today we started painting the borders for our stories to hang in the window. We used a primary colour today, then we will print a pattern with a secondary colour. We are so arty smarty!
BUBBLES
This week we have been finding words, blends and rhyming words in our poem Bubbles. What a great time to try to make our own bubble wands out of garden wire and our own bubble liquid out of dish washing liquid. We experimented with blowing soft, hard, close and further away. So much fun!
COMPOST KIDS
Today at lunchtime we started the Compost Kids Social Club and started off spring by weeding the school gardens.
We would like to start a garden outside Room 21. We need some plastic planters if you have any spares. We could grow an edible garden and grow flowers to help our class look beautiful.
