Monday 24 August Mrs Edmonds Video Blog post.

Morning guys I hope you had a good weekend.

Well done to you all working at home reading and writing and doing creative art drawings.  It is so good to hear from your parents that you are keeping yourselves busy.  Lots of you have learnt all your word list and I have sent out the next one.  This is brilliant.  Thanks to all the children and parents that have sent work through. Just whatever you can manage is fine.

If you wanted to read and you have no books don't panic on slide deck 6 there is a cool website "Flyleaf Publishing" it has loads of cool books that you can read.

If you wanted to go check out other class blogs just go to the top of the task bar and take out our class room 23 and type in 8 or 10 or another class you may want to look at.  They have been busy also doing the slide deck of activities.

Friday we start our class google meets and I am sooooooooooooo excited to see you.
Go and enjoy your day and keep warm.
Hugs from Mrs Edmonds!

Friday 1st May Mrs Edmonds Video Post

Ata Marie, Good morning Room 23
Happy May the 1st! How are you all?

I hope you have all had a chance to look at the great work your all doing on here and remember to comment!

I have not finished but I wanted to share my 'Recycled Vehicle' activity with you. (slide 7).





No it is not finished yet but I am now making a special amphibious craft called a "HOVER CRAFT".  Did you know that amphibious means that it can travel on land and on the water!   I wonder if I can put it in the water and see if it will float when I am finished?  Maybe I can use the bath.

If you want to do a couple of smaller activities from our slide deck of learning today you may want to have a go at slide 4 drawing a KORU pattern.
Or even slide 6 will have you moving and grooving to a fun dance with 'Just Dance' a song called 'da funk'.

Have a lovely weekend and I will see again on Monday

Good morning my beautiful Room 23 Whanau

Wow its Thursday!

How is the new 'Slide Deck' of activities going?
Mrs Edmonds is going to start making a recycled vehicle!  I have collected some toilet rolls and I will use some cellotape and scissors and maybe find some wool or string to make a little car.
Have a look at slide 7 for more information about the 'recycled vehicle' activity.

I will be contacting the rest of your parents today to arrange a morning or afternoon session with you for 'VIDEO MEETS'.
This is where I will be running a morning and afternoon session Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.  An email will be going out on Friday for your parents to read all about.

Have a great day guys and I will see you all again tomorrow morning!

Good bye from Mrs Edmonds

Week 3 Term 2 Wednesday 29th April Video post from Mrs Edmonds

Morena Tamariki ma

Wow Week 3 of Term 2 and its Wednesday meaning this is a short week.

We have an exciting new 'slide deck' of activities! and an IMPORTANT announcement.


Please go and see what new fun activities we have for you to do over the next two weeks.
Remember you don't need to do them all!

Mrs Edmonds will be contacting your mum and dad this week to arrange a 'VIDEO MEET' call with you for next week.  This is going to be so much fun because I will get to see you and you will get to see a small group of Room 23 friends.  We can share our work together and talk about how we are going.

Mrs Edmonds has had a look at our new 'slide deck' and I wonder if anyone is going to try out slide 7 there is a cool challenge where you collect recycled materials from around your house such as; egg cartons, tissue boxes, toilet rolls and lids and to make a VEHICLE, that could be a bus, van, train, plane or a car etc.

Go and enjoy your day and begin an activity or two and I look forward to hearing about how you are getting on.

Bye from Mrs Edmonds!
