October 2014

We can have fun while learning

We went to the A and P show. We had lots of fun there and learnt lots of things.

We went to the Farmyard zoo and got to hold and pat lots of baby animals.

We went on the rides and found them exciting.

It was hard to eat up all our hotdog and drink our drink as they were big.

We watched the Ronald MacDonald show.

He remembered us from when he came to our school.

 He was funny and nice to us.

We loved Mr Mac and Doug the Digger.

Some of us had turns on making the Digger go at the show.

At school 2 days before he let us all climb in his big truck.

We have had a busy term 3. We have a class Twitter @Rm2Riverslea 
We record most of our learning on our Individual wiki pages so that the parents/whanau 
can access it and see examples of the children's work, what they say about it and how the teacher supported them. Or it records events that have happened over the term.
