Lambing

Cold weather and the first lambs have arrived together. We are showing 'EMPATHY/AROHA to Prancer to ensure he survives. We have to ensure his needs are met - keep him warm (shelter) and feed him milk every three hours (food).



Reading Lessons

Over the past two weeks we have been studying procedural writing. During writing time we have written our own procedures, one of which was how to repair a bike puncture. We then had to follow our instructions and ensure we had enough detail for someone to fix a puncture.
We have also been focusing on comprehending procedural texts. Today we had to follow written origami instructions to make a bird - it was very tricky!


Technology Lessons Oxford

This week at Oxford Area School we started learning how to thread the sewing machine and sew in a straight line. This is in preparation for sewing our beanie creations.
