We thought hard about our pronunciation and pulled some words apart to look at chunks and think about vowel sounds.
Clifton Tce School is situated in sunny Nelson, New Zealand. We are lucky to have beautiful grounds that look out over Tasman Bay. There are approximately 300 children at our school ranging in age from 5 to 11 years old.

Korero Maori
On Friday we practise speaking Maori. Today we looked at maori place names around our community.
We thought hard about our pronunciation and pulled some words apart to look at chunks and think about vowel sounds.
We also revisited our numbers to five. We have been playing fish to master our numbers. We find it more difficult to remember the number names when we are not chanting them in order.

Bluguru
We went to a show in the hall and we learned a dance. I liked the dance. There were helpers for the dances. The lady who did the dances was pretty. There was a man who was good at playing the drums.

On Monday Josh and Parvyn came to Clifton Terrace to perform at my school. Parvyn did great dancing with 100 bells around her ankles. Josh tied them on because he went to Bunnings.

The drums were cool and the sitar but most of all it was the people!!!

Mudflat visit
The sun shone for us on Thursday afternoon as we travelled across the road to the mudflats. What a glorious time we had searching for living things and stomping around in the mud.
We found one thing we couldn't identify. Can you help us? Leave a comment with your thoughts.
What is it?

Have a Go
Today in Discovery time we watched a Youtube called Sid the Seed. Sid was too scared to come out of his little hole. When Sid finally came out he found an exciting world.
We talked about our Key for Learning, "Have a Go." Our challenge in Discovery time today was to have a go at something different. Here are some of the things we tried.
We made oobleck from cornflour and water. We made tents and houses from sheets.Friday, March 29, 2013
