The end of the year is fast approaching....

Whew, tomorrow is Tentmania when we get to sleep over at school.  The field will be a sea of tents and the weather is due to be awesome....I can't wait.

Today was a really special day, 12.12.12 so at 12 minutes past 12 we had whole school dancing on the bottom field.  What a lot of fun.  Thanks Whaea Luana for organising this.

Cartooning

 

We have been practising our listening skills by learning to draw cartoons.  It is a lot of fun and lots of us have been surprised at how fantastic our cartoons look.  We especially loved the rabbit drawn from a B and the sailor based on an anchor.

Rangoli

 

We made some fabulous Rangoli patterns here in Room Six a couple of weeks ago.  We have been talking about celebrations around the world and it was Diwali, (the festival of lights) so we read a story about Ram and Sita.  Making the patterns with salt and powder paint was lots of fun.  We drew them on black paper with chalk to begin with and then we added the colours.

Aren’t our patterns awesome!
