Maths - Patterns

We looked closely at our clothes and noticed the patterns.  A pattern happens again and again.  Can you see the small part (the rule) of the patterns on our clothes?

Surprise Puppy Visit

Today we had a surprise puppy visit.  Thank You Mrs Short for bringing the cute huntaways to school.  The puppies are only 2 and half weeks old.  They were very cute and cuddly.

Maths - Patterns

We have made lots of patterns in our class.  Can you see our pattern rules?

Flax Flowers

Last month we went to Taumata O Te Ra Marae.  They gave each girl a special flax flower taonga.  Mrs Christiansen told us if we brought some flax into class, she would make us some more.  We have brought LOTS of flax in.  One night Mrs Christiansen made 23 flax flowers.  Wow!  That is a lot!  Thank you to all the children who have shared their flax so everyone can have a flax flower.

Maths - Grouping Objects

We do lots of fun activities during maths time.  One of our favourites is sorting objects into groups.  Here are some groups we have made.  Can you tell how we have grouped them together?
