Counting to 20
Today during our Maths Tumble, some of us had to sort out the numbers for Mr Davidson. He got them all mixed up. The first number we had to find was 1. And then 2. And we kept going until we got all the way up to 20. Have a look at us sorting them out:
Learning With the Chrome Books
This week we started learning with the Chromebooks. Mr Davidson taught us how to find our student folders and make a new document. We all typed our name and the alphabet. Then we changed the name of our document to the date so that we would know when we did it. We were very clever and some of us remembered how to change the colour of the words. Have a look at some pictures of us working and our work:

Kids Can Jackets and Shoes
A big Thank You to Kids Can for delivering jackets and shoes to our school today! Here's a picture of some of us in our new threads. Don't worry if you didn't get one today, we'll be sorting out everything in the next few days. Don't forget to put your name in them!
Flower Power Wednesday
This week we have given the flower to two students. They did an amazing thing today. At lunch time, Lorenz and Dakshesh found a 20 dollar bill. Instead of keeping it for themselves, they came straight to me and we went to bring it to Whaea Lois. The boys did the right thing and for that, they have the flower this week. Great work boys!

Teamwork
Last week, Mr Davidson gave us a challenge. He had a tent pole and we had to lift it as high as we could. But we also had to touch it at all times. If someone wasn't touching it we had to start again. It took a lot of tries and we got very frustrated, but we started listening to each other and we got the pole very high all together. We used lots of Habits of Mind to do this, especially persistence and working with others.
