Gold Medal Comes To Nayland!!

We were very privileged today to have Jo Edwards, New Zealand Lawn Bowler come to our class! We were allowed to hold her gold medal and ask her some questions.

Did you know that Jo has been bowling for 22 years and that she used to play soccer for NZ?
Jo has won about 20 medals from Lawn Bowls outside NZ.

Thanks Jo for coming to visit us, it was so super special! Thanks to the Le Cheminant family for sorting it out for us!

Jadan's Poem

During reading time Jadan had read a poem about a naughty rabbit chewing things. Together we started another poem and Jadan finished it. Here it is....

Puppy Dog
Staying at home all alone
poor wee puppy dog
chewing a bone
chewing a hole in my net
has cut off the power to the TV set!

Limericks

We have begun looking at Limericks. We know that they rhyme, have a rhythm and have one subject usually a person or an animal.


There once was a boy called Jake
who liked to put bugs in his cake
he shared them with his sister
who came out in one big blister
then she chased him all the way to the lake.


Check out the link to limericks under learning links!
