Room 20 Puppet creations

For art this term Room 20 and Room 17 have created Papier Mache Puppets. We made our puppets so we could do puppet shows for our Year 2 buddies in Room 18 and 19. Here are our finished puppets. We are really proud of them. Thanks mums and dads for helping us make cool puppet gloves for them too!

Harold is back!

It's one of our favourite times at UHPS because the Life Education caravan is back. This year Room 20  have been learning about Friendship. The key learning intentions for the lessons are: We are learning to...

• Identify what qualities good friends possess
• Make our own decisions based on personal choice rather than peer pressure
• Talk about bullying and develop strategies to overcome it
• Discuss ways to deal with conflict resolution positively

Practising our spelling words

Each week in Room 20 we practise our spelling words in a range of fun ways. We can write our words on the windows with liquid chalk, or on the concrete with sidewalk chalk. We can make word-finds, memory games or play hangman with our words. We can also use magnetic letters to trace around our words and even spell them using sign language! 

Here are some of us practising our spelling words.

On the concrete outside our room

On the awhina space windows!

Spelling City is a fun website too.
