This week we have been working hard in our writing and maths. We have been learning how to use the strategies in our math learning into oral language. We found it a little bit hard trying to explain how we found our answer to say it out loud using the maths language. We know we will get use to explaining our learning soon because we talk about it everyday. In Writing, we are talking about 'Myths and Legends'. To help us build our vocabulary in writing, we are researching a hero or heroine of mythical time and legends. Here are some photos of us researching and in deep thought. Also this week we have a homework assignment to complete. Fakalofa Kia ora and Talofa Amazing Arewhana have been given an assignment focused around their Writing.

Individuality Song Amazing Arewhana love to sing and to do Zumba fitness. Singing is a part of our daily ritual of learning. Singing makes us happy and it helps us to clear our minds, as we don't have to think when we sing. We may not have the best voices like Beyonce or Shakira or even Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, but we try to stay in tune and time. We wanted to show everyone what we sound like now because we know we will get better in time. Zumba Fitness Zumba has become a new fad for these children. As their teacher, I am lucky enough to use my Zumba Kids training with them. Being a qualified Zumba Instructor gives me the opportunity to teach and help children enjoy movement, beat, and rhythm.
