What's The Time Mr Wolf?

In Room 16 over the last 2 weeks we have been learning to tell the time. At the start we thought you could only tell time on a clock. Now we know that time passes in lots of different ways. eg: the days of the week, and the months of the year are ways we can tell time is passing. Here are two songs that we have learnt this week to help us remember the 7 days of the week and the 12 months of the year.

Enjoy.

Love, Room 16

It's Duffy's Birthday

Duffy Books has been giving kids in Roslyn School and other kids all around NZ books for the last 15 years! Duffy turns 15 during the week of August 23rd and we want to make this week a special one in Room 16. But, we need your help with ideas.
- How can we celebrate Duffys birthday?
- How do you usually celebrate your birthday?
We would love to know what you think.
Love,

Endangered Animals - What can we do?

Today we watched a video on youtube of endangered animals. The video showed us pictures of some animals that are endangered and it also showed us reasons why animals are dying and becoming endangered.

These are some of the reasons shown in the video:
- people are hunting animals for fun.
- people hunt animals for food.
- people cut down the trees and the animals have no place to live.
- people hunt animals like whales to make things like lipsticks.
- people are nuking places which kills animals and their homes.
- bad weather is killing animals.
- animals are killing other animals

From this video we decided the major reason animals are becoming endangered are PEOPLE!!

So, what can we, as individuals and a class, do about it?

Welcome Back To Term 3!

I can't believe the holidays are over already and we're back into the swing of things at school! Time goes so fast!

We would like to welcome Elisabeth and Jisoo to Room 16. Elisabeth joins us from Central Normal School and Jisoo is here all the way from Korea! We are thrilled to have these lovely ladies with us!

So, My question to you is: What do you want to see on our blog this term? Have a think about it and post your responses here!

Smiles,
Miss Cooper
