100 days of school

Kiwi and Tui syndicates are counting the days we are at school.  
When we get to day 100 we will have a special celebration!  
In Room 7 we have a 100 days of school board, every day we discuss the number of the day.  
We record the number in different ways and discuss place value, all this number talk adds to our ever increasing number knowledge.
Check out the photos below - we are already at day 16!

Today we measured our paper chain.  It is almost as tall as Suhani

It is shorter than the door

Welcome to 2015!

Hi there,  I hope you have all had a fabulous summer.  I have enjoyed the weather doing lots of beach activities with my family as well as a trip to the Bay of Plenty and Hawkes Bay. 
I am excited about another great year at Redwood school.  Over this first week we will get to know each other as a class and establish routines and expectations that will help our class run smoothly.  There will be a few notices home and I will post some general information to help you get acquainted with the Room 7 learning programme.
Thanks,
Emma O'Leary
