Gym Time

Yesterday room 2 went to the gym. When we got there we warmed up by stretching.It was called connection game. Then we did balancing with a buddy.My buddy was Ryan Dobbin. We also did it by ourself.

Snow

Yesterday Mr Dobbin came to room 2 and he said he had a surprise for us. We all went outside. The surprise was three bags of snow. When I touched it it felt soft and it looked like my white fluffy blanket. We had a snowball fight. Bailey threw lots of snow at me because I was slow. The snow stuck to the concrete. When we finished room 1 played in the snow too.

Harold the Giraffe

Today room 2 went to Harold. The truck is relly cool and is all full of carpet. What we do there is learn lots of new stuff. We learnt about variety and all the different food we could eat. It was funny when Harold sang and when he wriggled his ears.

Going to see Harold

Today my class and I went on a truck. We got to see Harold. My class had to ask questions about being healthy. There was a food pyramid in the truck. Harold did the ear wave and everyone laughed. Sarah told Harold to clean his room but Harold was being funny when Sarah was talking. I felt really really excited about seeing Harold. It was my first time too. I hope we get to see Harold the giraffe again sometime.

remembering summer

On icy, winter days
my feet remember the smooth stones in the water,
my legs remember the splashes from the waves,
my body remember my suntan lotion,
my arms remember carrying a tog bag,
my hands remember picking flowers,
my face remembers sweat running down it,
my mind remembers that summer will be back again soon,
by Emma

remembering summer

On a freezing, winter day,
My feet remember the prickles on the grass,
My legs remember all the sprinting that made them sore,
My body remembers all the clothes that made it hot,
My arms remember climbing up a tree,
My hands remember the chocolate melting them,
My face remembers getting splashed in the sea,
My mind remembers that summer will be back again soon.

Remember summer

On a nippy, winter day
my feet remember smooth stones I stood on,
my legs remember the cool breeze,
my body remembers floating on the water,
my arms remember climbing up the biggest tree,
my hands remember picking my hat up,
my face remember getting sweaty after a game,
my mind remembers that summer will be back again soon.

Remembering Summer

In writing we have been learning to make our stories more interesting by using adjectives. To help us do this Miss Nation read us a poem from a school journal called remembering summer. It had lots of adjectives in it and we had to write our own version of it using describing words. HAve a read and tell us what you think of them.

Remembering Summer

On frosty, winter day's,
my feet remember the scorching hot sand,
my legs remember the wavey wet water,
my body remembers the flaming hot sun,
my arms remember throwing the beach ball,
my hands remember building sand catsles,
my face remembers the water splashing on me,
my mind remembers that summer will be back again soon.

Remembering Summer

On icy, winter days,
my feet remember the blazing hot concrete,
my legs remember the warm sand on them,
my body remembers splashing in the cool pool,
my arms remember twirling in the hot sun,
my hands remember eating red ice blocks,
my face remembers the cool brezz blowing on my cheeks,
my mind remembers that summer will be back again soon.
