Scientist Robert and his writing

 Here is a fantastic picture by Robert who wrote his sentence:

 'I think the water will turn colourful' and a drew a picture of his skittles. I think Robert has tried super hard and he should be very proud of himself! 

Did anyone else write a sentence like Robert? I'd love to see.

Aquarius' Week 1 work and creativity

 Wow! 

Aqua was so busy last week with all her hard learning. When her mum sent me her pictures on Friday I was blown away with just how clever and how hardworking she had been. Good job Aquarius, I can see you love learning with your mummy and creating lots of imaginative and super things. 

Aquarius has been looking at different coins and counting them and she has been creating her own masks to keep safe!

Will you show us some more amazing learning this week? I can't wait to see what you do.

Here are some pictures from Aqua's last week in her home learning world.





Well Done Aquarius!

Monday Science challenge

 Our first challenge is to find our what happens when we add warm water to skittles... I hope they don't explode like our volcano did!

Below is a slide with all our questions and videos on. I wonder who can write a sentence about what is happening and use the words 'I think' ?



Week 2 challenge: we are scientists

 Last week our challenge was to be authors and design pages for our lock down book. This post can still be found on the blog from last week so check it out if you haven't yet, the designs so far look amazing!


This week your challenge is to be.... scientists! 

Miss Rayner is going to be posting a new video everyday of different experiments for you to watch or even to try at home. In our morning meet we will be looking at them and trying to write a sentence about what we think will happen. 


What scientific things can you think to do around the house? 

Have a great week everyone,

from Miss Rayner

We are authors challenge - ideas so far

Kia Ora all.

I am so SO excited to see so many of you online and ready to go. Especially in todays meetings.

I wanted to share with you our very first submission for our classbook: What we did in lockdown. If you haven't seen our challenge then check out my previous blog post. 


This is by the lovely Annabelle's drawing about her day in lockdown. I can't wait to add it to our book!

A beautiful illustration and writing from you Annabelle.

I also wanted to share this lovely piece of work by Aquarius sent in by her mummy about who is in her bubble. Great idea Aqua! 

Aquarius is always showing us in her class her wonderful illustrations so it's lovely to see her creating even more at home. 

Robert has worked so hard on his writing for our book!

Kia Kaha akomanga, 
I will see you all soon!

Lockdown challenge: We are authors!

 Kia ora friends,

Thanks for checking out the blog. Here is your extra challenge for this week!

I want to know... can the Room 16 children show me what wonderful authors they are? I'm asking you to draw a picture of something you have done over lockdown this week and send it to me by Friday

Underneath can you write a sentence that is similar to mine?

' My name is Miss Rayner. In lockdown I read a lot of books and I went on a big walk. It was fun!'

So let's check those again:

Job 1: Draw a picture of something that you have done this lockdown on a piece of paper/tablet/ card.

Job 2: Write a sentence like Miss Rayner's above.

Job 3: Give yourself a pat on the back for doing so well! Then ask your adult to send me your picture.

I will be making mine this week so I'll upload it on this post when it's done. All of the children who send in a picture are helping me to make our special room 16 lockdown book. I'll print off all your lovely stories and put them together to make a book for our classroom. Lockdown can be quite different but I know our lovely akomanga/class are in this together. 


I can't wait to see what you come up with!

See you all later, Miss Rayner
