Tui Reading Group Research Assignment

The Tui's reading group have completed a project on frogs. They would like to share this with you. Our thanks to the wonderful Room 1 students who came in to teach us how to import photos to Explain Everything.

Doubles and halves

We have been learning about patterns of doubles to ten, and halves. We talked about doubles meaning getting a group the same size and half making our counters into two piles of exactly the same size. Cody is able to make the pattern of double three for six. Using the pattern he can show half of six is three.

Symmetrical Gingerbread

We made ginger bread with Mrs Smith. We iced them in a symmetrical pattern. Symmetrical patterns are the same on both sides. These are our results. Yum!!

Fireman Dan's Visit

Fireman Dan and a few of his friends, Craig, Jon, Peter and David, came to see us at Kaniere School. Their visit fitted in with our Disaster Unit, "What's the Plan Stan?". They taught us basic fire safety rules. After talking in class we realised that not everyone knew where their safe meeting place was. We had talked about this when discussing earthquakes. Has your family got a safe meeting place?

Fruit or Vegetable

What makes a fruit a fruit and a vegetable a vegetable? How do we tell the difference? Is it colour? Is it taste? Is it where it grows? What is a tomato? What is pumpkin? How about beans, strawberries, or bananas? Which are fruit and which are vegetables?
