Room 1

Room 1 
Room 1 has been learning about Pukeiti, the temperate rainforest. As part of this they have been to Puke Ariki, completed artwork and learnt many cool things. They have learnt about the Rata Tree and have drawn one each. They have completed collages of the Kereru (wood pigeon). They have also started some art on wetas which they are learning about.

We asked some of the kids what they thought the Rainforest was before they had learnt about it...

Charlie B thought that it was a forest with rain.

Jaxon thought that there were lots of monkeys and trees.

Oliver thought there were terrible tigers in it.

 

We also asked some of the kids what they have learnt and what was their favourite part.

Blake said "I liked drawing the Rata Tree and learning about the Giant Rata." 
Oliver said "I liked doing the wood pigeon art and learnt that they eat berries."
Kate said "I liked learning about the trees and my favourite was going to Puke Ariki and making my own golden tree."

Room 1 loves learning about their topic! Way to go Mrs Stuck!
