The Penguin

Room 5 is learning to write poems on their favourite animal. Here are the poems by two groups. It was a big task to rhyme words and at the same time make sure that they made sense in a sentence. Enjoy reading our poems and please do not forget to leave a comment.

The Floppy Penguin

Wibble Wobble Penguin do not stop

Come out of the ice flip it all off.

Slippy Sloppy fish here it comes

Catch it hurry up before it runs.

Widdle woddle penguin glide into the sea

Dive deep in and and slide into a spree.

Chubby cheeky Penguin in the bush

Mind the little one don’t give it a push.

Slippy sloppy Penguin in the west

Looking so pretty in it’s nest.

By Lydia,Hevani,Edith,Arizona,Levi,Taonga,Stephany.   

The Shark

Dip, dive shark

Do not stop.

Come out of the sea,

Drip, drip drop.

Big, huge enormous,

Swimming in the sea.

Eating all the fish,

Your favourite dish.

By Rouruina, Madjik, Mason, Fine, Villiami, Paula

My Favourite Bird: By Taonga

Room 5 read a poem about Tui the bird. Then they went off to research facts about their favourite bird.
This is Taonga's first attempt to make a presentation. She has learnt how to make copy of a google presentation and to take screen shots to insert pictures in her presentation. Well done Taonga! Your presentation looks great!

Learning Place values

Learning Place values was fun when we used different equipment like blocks and  tens frames. Tiare and Taonga went all creative and could show the place value of a number using dices.
