Warm and Cool Hand Art

We are working on our first art project. Mrs Speirs got the idea from a friend that found it on Pinterest. We think they will look very effective when they are finished. This is our progress so far...






 

SKUNK

We played SKUNK to practice our addition basic facts. Liam had the top score yesterday so he was "Skunk of the Day" and got to run the game today. Play it at home, it's so easy, you just need dice and some scrap paper. You can make it addition or multiplication too.


SOLO and Circle Maps


We are going to use the SOLO Taxonomy to help us advance our thinking and questioning in TEAM 2. We learnt the hand signs for each level. Remember how we played the quick draw game...


We also used a Thinking Map to organise our thinking about what we know about Waitangi Day.
