An email to Gil

Today we read an email Gil sent to us. He has left Waiuku and moved all the way to Israel.

We wrote him back an email, this is what it said:

Dear Gil,

We got your message. We heard it is really hot in Israel.
We fixed it so that you can go back into Mathletics. We can see how many points you get!
We also heard that you cannot understand the language in Israel. Maybe you could learn a few words to make it easier.

Here are some messages from Room 4:

• We miss you - from Emily
• You had better remember me, I'm one of your best friends - From Cory
• I hope you enjoy living in Israel - From Waima
• Do you think it is cool in Israel? - From Ryan
• What is it like in Israel? What do they eat? - From Tauryn
• Is it fun in Israel? - From Caleb
• How is your school in Israel? - From Nick
• What is your class' name? - From Natasha
• We have been missing you for weeks - from Luke

Bye!

From Room 4 & Rachel

Cross Country Running!

Last Tuesday we had the School Cross Country.
We have been training a lot and trying to run really fast.

First we sat in lines in our year groups. There was a year 2 girls and a year 2 boys line. The Year 0/1 girls ran first, then the boys. Next it was our turn... some of us had our hearts pumping really fast. Some of us were really nervous.

The year 2 girls ran first. Room 4 got some great placings:

• 2nd - Natasha
• 3rd - Laura
• 4th - Lexie
• 5th - Waima

Then the year 2 boys raced. Here are some of our best results:

• 3rd - Ryan
• 6th - Jack D
• 7th - Aidan
• 8th - Gil
• 10th - Jaidyn

After the race we felt proud of ourselves but we were really puffed. It was so great to have lots of our parents and aunties come and watch us. We were very happy!

Space Poems

We are learning how to present space poems.

At the end of the term we are having a poem recital. We have been learning different space poems and working hard to recite them with expression and to read them clearly. We don't want it to sound like we are robots reading!

Take a listen to us reading the poem "Space" and let us know what you think of our presentation!
