Welcome to A1'

Kia ora & greeting to all parents and caregivers, 

Welcome to A1's blog. I hope your lovely children would have come home and informed you about the blog. Apologies to all the parents who couldn't reach the blog.

The blog will be the place where you will find all the information about A1's learning.

Would like to thank all the parents who sent in the stationary in week 1. Almost all the students brought in their stationary except for 4. A1 was one of the classes that was chosen for having nearly 100% stationary.

A newsletter was sent home giving all the details about Term 1's learning. Week 4 is a special day  "meet the teacher evening". Please keep yourself free as I'm very keen to meet every single parent. "Success is not the work of one but the work of many". This is our school whakatauki. Let's work together for the success of our children. I'm aiming for  100% attendance  as our class will get a treat from Mr. Piper. Please help us achieve 100%.

In regards to learning your children will come home with a reading book for reading. Please read with them and let them learn to ask question about the text. They will bring in 2 new books in a week as this will help them to increase their reading mileage and fluency. Please let them learn High frequency words as well  this will help them to be confident writers.

 Writing is going well in class. The students are learning how to write  Descriptions. They are learning to follow a structure and use lots of adjectives "wow words". Please encourage them to do a piece of writing every single night.

Maths: The big focus is building up their Number Knowledge. They are working on forwards & backwards numbers to 100 & 1000. Place values, basic facts, adding number by counting on from a bigger number. We will soon move on to bigger learning. You will be posted with all the new learning.

You can walk in class to see some Anchor charts that will be displayed about the recent learning.

Do come by to say hello and see your lovely childrens work in class. 

Thanks

Hello A1 students, Today is another day special day during the Holy Week. It is called as Holy Monday when Jesus cleanses the Temple God. Please watch the video and then read the passage from the Gospel and retell the the whole event in your own words.  https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/bible-videos/videos/jesus-cleanses-the-temple?lang=eng Jesus Cleanses the Temple 13  The Passover of the Jews was at hand, and Jesus  went up to Jerusalem.   14  In the temple he found those who were selling oxen and sheep and pigeons, and the money-changers sitting there.   15  And making a whip of cords, he drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and oxen. And he poured out the coins of the money-changers and overturned their tables.   16  And he told those who sold the pigeons,  “Take these things away; do not make  my Father's house a house of trade.”   17  His disciples remembered that it was written,  “Zeal for your house will consume me.” 18  So the Jews said to him,  “Wh

Thursday Learning!!

       Today is Holy Thursday or Maundy Thursday. Today starts the Paschal Triduum. Three Most Holy days in the Catholic Liturgical Calendar. On this very day Jesus Instituted the Sacrament  of the Holy Eucharist by giving his Body and Blood as a Ransom for our Salvation. Jesus Washes His Disciples’ Feet 13  It was just before the Passover Festival.  Jesus knew that the hour had come for him to leave this world and go to the Father.  Having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end. 2  The evening meal was in progress, and the devil had already prompted Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, to betray Jesus.   3  Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power,  and that he had come from God  and was returning to God; 4  so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel around his waist.   5  After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet,  drying them with the t

Dear Parents & caregivers, I would like to thank each one of you for your continuous support with your child's online learning.  I think the students are getting the hang of working on this new platform. I would like to congratulate A1 Superheroes for working hard and adapting to the situation. I would have liked to have more attendance for Google class meet times.
