We are learning to enjoy the library

My Self Portrait
I am learning to draw a portrait of myself.
Room 8 has been working on their self portraits this term.
We started off by sketching ourselves without any direction. We then drew ourselves with direction from the teacher to ensure all our facial features were in the right place. After we were happy with our entire sketch, we outlined in vivid and coloured using water soluble pastels. The pastels turned into paint after water was added. We chose a pair of sunglasses to wear in our portraits.
I can draw all the facial features in the correct place.
Our work looks beautiful!

WALT identify the author and the illustrator in the text
WALT identify the author and the illustrator in the text.
Room 4 has been using all of our reading skills this year, ready for Year 2. Every week we have a new 'test'
about different parts of the book. We have been searching for full stops, exclamation marks, question marks
and commas. This week we are focusing on finding the author and the illustrator. We all had a turn to come up
and point to where the illustrators name is. Miss Donnell tried to trick some of us and changed the pages!
'I know the illustrator is the person who draws the pictures for the story.'

WALT identify NZ notes and coins
WALT identify NZ notes and coins.
We had Captain Cash from ASB come to visit Room 4.
We learnt lots about saving money, spending money and
sharing money.
Miss Donnell decided to test us and see if we remembered how to sort out the coins and notes from biggest to smallest.
Look at my sorting success!

Our Writing Successes
WALT reflect on our 2018 writing.
We looked in our writing books at the first piece of writing
we did this year and the most recent piece of writing.
We talked about what had changed in our writing,
what we have learnt so far and are excited
to learn next year in Year 2.
Something I have learnt in writing this year is how to use full stops.
Something I am proud of in writing this year is adding more detail to my story.
WALT create a wearable piece of artwork.
WALT create a wearable piece of artwork.
Our art focus over Term 2 and 3 has been creating a piece of
art we can wear. Miss Donnell introduced us to a song in The Little Mermaid called 'Under the Sea' which was the focus of our art work.
We created our artwork by sketching sea animals in our books and tracing them onto laminated sheets. We coloured them in and created patterns using vivids. Miss Donnell glued them on to tutus and t-shirts for us to wear.
Check out my awesome art piece!
