Buzz Bee

On Wednesday we went to the Suter Gallery to see the 'I Spy" exhibition. It was great fun and helped us to think of some good describing words when we were writing clues for other groups to use. Here we are hard at work. Why not pop along to the Suter on Saturday, it's free, and see if you can solve some of their clues. A big thank you to all the parents who came along to help and support us.


Ask you child what was so surprising about this picture!


On Friday we had the opportunity to spend a sesion with some of the musicians from the Nelson Symphony Orchestra involved with Tuby The Tuba. We looked at the instruments and the plasticine models used in putting together the show. You can see the show at the Nelson School of Music this Saturday 16th May. Can you guess which Room 11 friend these legs belong to?



Check out this week's poem and listen for all the words containing the 'z' sound.



Next week our tricky words will be 'here' and 'come' and our sounds are 'ng' and 'v'. Our big book focus will be Lavalava and we will be looking at the nursery rhyme "Sing a Song of Sixpence". In maths we are continuing our focus numeracy and working in our groups. We will be making prints, rubbings and sketches of autumn leaves in art. The cross country practices are still taking place 4 times a week, thank you for sending in sensible footwear.

    Room 9 saw Eye Spy at the Suter Art Gallery too! I thought it was so clever how they wrote the sentences underneath the artworks.
    I wish I had been at Tubby the Tuba to see Toby with his head inside the Tuba!!!

    Aha! Just realised I was wrong and it is actually Bruno inside the tuba! I am easily tricked :)
