Amazing Fun Art

Last term Te Ngahere and Te Maunga were doing koru and kowhaiwhai patterns. We were learning to draw koru and kowhaiwhai patterns. Whaea Chrissy taught us how to use a paint brush properly. Our design will be put in the Whare. Here is mine.

Student Led Conferences

On Tuesday Te Ngahere made Student Led Conference google drawings. I shared my one at home with my family because I couldn’t attend the conference. My parents  thought it was really good. We had to put Art, Inquiry, maths, writing and Reading in our google drawing.

Matariki Celebration Day

Last week on Thursday Paihia School had a family Matariki day. We did all kinds of fun stuff like Art, planting trees, playing games and eating freshly made pancakes, waffles and donuts. Some people got up at 6.00 am and went with the school to see the matariki stars. Then at 7.00 am we went to school for a breakfast. After breakfast we played until 9.00 am and then it was usual school.

Waitangi Celebrations

Last Week we went to Waitangi, we played a lot of games and we got to weave a piece of  flax. We had to have buddies mine was Brodi. We made a cool kite it was very pretty. My favourite game was the rope game.

Fidget Spinner Art

A few weeks ago, Te Ngahere and Te Maunga drew their own fidget Spinners. We were learning to use as much space as we could. We were drawing fidget spinners to go with our fidget spinner writing. We used crayon and dye in our picture.

Here is my story !!!

I am talking to you today because I think fidget spinners should not be allowed in class or even school.

Firstly, they can distract you in class and affect other people. They can make you confused because you will be looking at it, and you might forget what you are doing and confuse you.

Secondly, they can be really expensive, some can cost over ten dollars and what is the point of getting something that small for ten dollars.

Thirdly, somebody might want a turn and then they may break it. Then you could get sad and some people are not normal, they might have a fight.

For all these reasons this is why fidget spinners should not be allowed  at Paihia School.

The Yummy Ice Cream

A few weeks ago Te Ngahere made ice cream. First we had to get our reading tasks done. We were learning to answer a variety of questions. We had to have buddy’s my buddy was Brodi. Te Ngahere got to make ice cream because all of our class finished their learning plans.

General Knowledge

Last week we made presentations about general knowledge. We were Learning to find information about the world around us. I think I did really good with my presentation because I got a lot of facts in it. Although I think I could have done better with the key information.
