Inquiry - How can I be a powerful learner?

We will be using the statements below to help us become more confident with sharing our ideas and develop our thinking further. 

Our schoolwide 'Te Rapa HEART' is at the centre of how we act and all that we do.

Learning Areas

Writing - We will using adjectives and verbs to make sad/boring sentences much more interesting.  In Word Work we are revising sounds and our letter and numeral formations.

Maths - We will be using the Pr1me programme and Mathletics.

P.E. - This term our focus is swimming.  We will be learning new skills with Rooms 7 & 9.

Digital Technologies - We will be learning to make and follow directions.
