Running races

We have been getting ready for Rimu Athletics Day.  Sadly, it was raining today so we will have Athletics Day on Friday.
We have had to learn to run in lanes.  We have found this VERY tricky!

Coco and Navala are Room 3's semi-finalists for Friday's running race.

Get, Set, Go!

Every Monday we have Get, Set, Go!  Coach Dean comes and teaches us some very clever skills.  Today we played games that helped us with our balance and with our catching and throwing.  Aren't we clever!

Visitors in Room 3!

We had some very cute visitors in Room 3 this morning!  Felix came and showed us his pet chicks.  Felix didn't tell us that they were chicks.  We had a very interesting conversation about what we thought these animals would grow into!

Our School Focus

I wonder how many seeds are in a pumpkin?

Room 3 wondered how many seeds were in a pumpkin.  We went to investigate!

We read a story about pumpkins and printed off a picture of a pumpkin and went on a pumpkin hunt!

 

We looked all around our gardens trying to find a pumpkin.

We found one!

We all touched the pumpkin.

We cut up the pumpkin and took out the seeds.

We looked closely at the seeds.

We put the seeds on 10's frames so we could count in 10's to count the seeds.

Our pumpkin had 112 seeds!!!

A Visit From Laura

We asked the wonderful Laura to come in and speak to us as we had lots of questions about our school garden. She was helpful and answered all our questions. Why don't you come and see our "I wonder wall". You can see all of our questions and wonderings.
