Over the holidays I have been busy getting the classroom ready for another great term of learning and fun!
Our Eric Carle art is up on the walls (staple-gunned on the wall...don't tell Mr Lister!) Our Maui art, Matariki art and our korowai are up in the corner looking fabulous, and our computers have been moved!
Yay! Room 4 have been given another two laptops to support our learning :) We now have a long ICT table that is waiting to be used by the kids.
Term 3 is looking more and more exciting!
Our topic for Term 3 is 'Art is All Around' - which suits Room 4 and myself perfectly as we all LOVE art, so watch this space to see all of our wonderful creations that will be popping up on our blog. Eric Carle will be our main focus; so feel free to bring in any Eric Carle books you may have at home that you wouldn't mind us borrowing for the term.
JET will also be focusing on our topic, so if you have lots of 'bits and pieces' at home that the kids may enjoy making things out of then please deliver them to us :) we would love it!
Also, get thinking about creating a Wearable Arts costume that your child can parade around later on in the term...perhaps out of recycled materials!
Below are some pictures of how great our classroom is looking with all of our wonderful artwork:

Hello Room 4. I love the artwork that you have produced. The Maui art in particular looks fantastic! However, I have a few questions about your door...
ReplyDeleteWhat is the very hungry caterpillars name?
Why is he so hungry?
Should somebody be feeding him?
Can he cook?
What does he like to eat?
What kind of things does he do when he's not hanging out on the door?
Does he go to the movies?
Has he seen the movie 'Inside Out'? I hear it's a pretty good film...
Does he have any caterpillar friends he likes to hang out with?
Can he do a backflip?
I would love to know the answers to these questions!
So many questions! Thank you for leaving a comment :)
Delete1. We are yet to name our very hungry caterpillar!
2. He is so hungry because he is growing to try and become a butterfly!
3. Yes someone should be feeding him...but then again he does have legs ;)
4. He can cook, but not very nice things!
5. He loves to eat treats, strawberries and lots of chocolate!
6. Hmmmm we think he gets up to mischief when he's not hanging in the door! Maybe he's the one that leaves the room messy!
7. Yes he does go to the movies! In the weekend when we are not here.
8. He has seen the movie 'Inside Out', he really enjoyed it, but his favourite movie is the Minions movie.
9. He cannot do a backflip but can do a forwards flip!
We hope we have answered all of your wonderful questions!
From Room 4 :)
