We are learners at Tāmaki Primary School in Auckland, New Zealand and our teacher is Matua Stefan
In Room 3, we enjoy going to school to see each other, to have fun and dance dance dance! But all that changed during lockdown. Check out our creative solution to this dancing dilemma by watching our film entry into the 2021 Manaiakalani film festival.
We have enjoyed our first week of Term 4. We did lots of online learning and even had Reading and Math workshops! Some of us sent photos of our learning to share with everyone. Check them out below.
Uasi has been practising Phonics. Uasi would listen for a word. He would break the word up into chunks of sound and then write those letter sounds into his book. Fantastic stuff Uasi!
Check out our diamond Matariki stars! Acacia, Kahlani and AJ are holding their awesome stars made from shapes. Can you see the shapes we used to make ours stars? At Tāmaki Primary School we are looking forward to celebrating Matariki by colouring pictures and learning Te Reo Māori. We love stars because it's nice and bright in the night sky.

In Room 3, we read the Cook Island Māori book "Rūkau nō te rā 'ānau'anga" (Birthday Rūkau).
Rūkau is a special dish from the Cook Islands. It is made with taro leaves, corned beef, onion and coconut cream.
After reading the book, we made rūkau the way Moana and Papa Tere made it in the book.
When it had been cooked, we wrote down some instructions so everyone could make it. We even got to eat the delicious rūkau. It was yummy, yummy, yummy!
We love Easter in Room 3. We were so lucky to have an Easter Egg hunt at school today. This is the photo we took at the end holding up our chocolate eggs! Thank you to the school leaders who put this together.
