Week 4 Term 3 2022




What a glorious weekend, I hope you were able to get outside and enjoy the sun. Congratulations to our daily winners for the maths Challenges put out last week by Mrs. Dinniss. We were only able to give out one of the large Lollipops to Vedick who was able to tie with Mrs. Dinniss on Thursday's math challenge. When I am finally back in the classroom on Thursday I have one last team challenge for you that we were unable to do on Friday with Mass and Mary Mackillop day. I was so proud of the way you conducted yourself at the activities well-done R12. 
Congratulations to all of our Under 9 rugby players as they wrapped up a very good season of rugby.
Mrs. Dinniss also wrapped up her Saturday netball with a win.
We have a very messy week with a lot of relievers in. On Monday children will be going to a variety of teachers in the senior school as I will be attending the Year5/6 Cultural day at Aquinus. This will give the kids a bit of a look at possible teachers for next year. They will need their Chromebooks only, and where they are going if they forgot is on the windows outside R12. Tuesday the lovely Mrs. Kusabs will be in for the day and will be doing some artwork for the Little Red Rocking Hood production. Wednesday I am also out with the sevens boys y5/6 rugby teams as they compete against other schools in the BOP. Thursday and Friday though I will finally be back if there are any issues please just let me know.

This week:
R.E. = God called Mary Mackillop into friendship and He calls us too. We will talk about how Mary answered Gods call and how God walked alongside Mary as she did God's work. 
Literacy = we are continuing to look at surface features. Surface features are the little niggly things that help us to get the message. Punctuation, spelling and grammar all fit under this umbrella. Just talking about these features while sharing stories, and reading recipes... is a great way to bring awareness. 
Maths =  We will also be adding little maths challenges for maths week. We will be moving into Fractions this week as well.

  Welcome Back! I am very excited to be coming back in 2022, to Room 12. I hope you have all had a great break and are ready to get back into school. A little background into myself for those of you that don't know me. I was born and raised in Alberta Canada. I have been living in New Zealand for 16 years. My three boys and I have been calling Rotorua home for the past 7 years. I love to camp, play all sports and spend time with my boys on our farm. I am looking forward to all the adventures that 2022 will bring. I am a firm believer in reading at home, for the most part, this is the only ask I will have for my students in the form of homework. Reading at home can look different for each person. You could have someone read a book to you, you can listen to audiobooks, read online/device or read to someone else. The recommendation is for 20mins each day. With our very busy lives, this is often not achievable but it is the goal I would like everyone to strive for. A reading log went h

  13/02/22 Kia ora, Welcome to week 3! We had a wonderful start to the year last week with students excited to be back. This weekend, it felt like we might be experiencing the first signs of fall with the rain, cooler temps and leaves falling. Let's hope mother nature allows us a little more summer in the weeks to come.  We will be starting some of our required testing this week to give us an indication as to where your tamariki is since the end of last year. We will be starting up with our maths, writing and reading programmes over the week and encourage you to talk to your child about what they have been doing in class. Maths - We will be looking at addition and subtraction. A fun game for the car is to have the kids ask you math questions, sometimes answer correctly sometimes wrong see if they can catch you a point for the person who guesses correctly. start at first with simple questions to 10 5+5=10, 4+3=7, 9-5=4 try and answer as quickly as possible.
