Hasn't he done a great job!

Humpty Dumpty

Humpty Dumpty had a very bad accident. What a shame the King's men couldn't put the scrambled egg back together again.

Jasmine's Baa Baa Black Sheep

I have made this animation as part of our topic study this term.  I liked recording my voiceover.  I made a few mistakes but got it right at the end.  Hope you enjoy listening to and watching my animation.

Dino Mix

The Pukekos group have been learning about prefixes, and how they are used in dinosaur names to describe them.


They have mixed some of their favourite dinosaur together to invent new one.
Which one do you like best?

The 'ate/ait' Word Family

The Penguins Literacy group have learnt about another word family.
These words can be spelt differently.

Can you think of any other words that rhyme with these 'ate' words?

Peacocks

The Moas literacy group have been reading about a family that have peacocks as pets.
They have made a quiz about what they have learnt.

How many of these questions could you answer?

Dinosaur Mix

Rita has been learning about different types of dinosaurs and has mixed them all up to create her own invented dinosaur. She has described each dinosaur to tell us about what is special about them.

In her writing Rita has been thinking carefully about the words in sentences to make them clearer for the audience. Can you hear which ones have 1 clause, and which sentences have 2?

We know all about the 'ound' word family. Knowing this sound helps us to spell other words in the word family.
We also learnt some new words - did you know a 'hound' was another name for a dog?

Carnivorous Dinosaurs

The Moas group have been reading about the scariest dinosaurs .... the carnivors!

Where have all the dinosaurs gone?

The Hawks literacy group have been reading about prehistoric mammals.
They were very different to the dinosaurs.
We think we know why the mammals are still around and all the dinosaurs have gone.

Giant Dinosaurs

The Penguins literacy group have been reading about the biggest dinosaurs.

Here are some of the things we've learnt.

Life Sized Dinosaur

How big is a real dinosaur?
Room 12 wanted to find out what a 20 metre long Apatosaurus looked like, so we drew it to scale on the court. Take a look at how we did it.

I Know A Lot About Cats

Ahsin has been learning about cats and knows lots of new words.


The big hairs on the cat's face are whiskers.
It's claws are nails.
The paws are feet.
A coat is the cat's hair
