Online Learning

Learning from home

Tāmaki Makaurau might be operating at Alert Level whā, but rūma toru is not slowing down with our mahi!  

Ana (rūma toru) and her sister Alayna (rūma rua) are thinking about Maths. Their awesome mum helped them make the learning activities you see below. Ana and Alayna have to match the number with the word, and then place those numbers in the right order. Tino pai rawa atu! 

 

Not only are they Maths wizards, but they are also experts in Phonics. They are reading words, making the initial letter sound and matching it with the correct letter of the alphabet. Ka wani kē!

As if that wasn't cool enough, the superstar John Nelson is back to share some more work he's been doing at home. John Nelson has been practicing writing words in his book. He focused really hard on forming his letters correctly, even spacing and spelling the words correctly. Ka rawe John Nelson!

Let's count to 100!

 Online Learning during Level 4

Room 3 might all be learning from home but we are still doing awesome mahi! This is a picture of John Nelson's maths book. He has been learning his numbers to 100! 

Before lockdown, Room 3 would start our mathematics learning by singing this awesome song. John Nelson is continuing this learning at home. Thank you for sharing your mahi John Nelson. You are a counting superstar!

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.
