Sharing about our special cultures

This week we had two parents come to talk to us about their culture.

Johnny's mum along with Johnny and Hanna sang a song in Vietnamese.


We learned to count from one to ten in Vietnamese.

These are the words to say Good morning, Thank you and Goodbye in Vietnamese.

We could hear Johnny's mum talking to Johnny and Hanna in Vietnamese.


Ally made her identity poster and her mum and brother helped her.




 Ally's mum pointed to us on the map where Tonga is.


She also read us some Tongan language words and showed us the "Heilala" flower.


A big "Thank you" to the two parents who came to share about their culture and language.

Our portraits

Our learning this term is about our Identity.  We will find more about ourselves.  We started by drawing a portrait about ourselves by looking at our photo to help us draw.


















We have amazing artists in Room 3.  Fabulous work!!

Birds

Room 3 has been learning about birds and how they adapt to their environment.Birds have different beaks. They can be short, long, pointed or curved. Birds feathers are soft and light. Birds have different colors of feathers too. Some birds have short legs and some have thin, long legs. They are light so they can fly high in the sky.
We made our own birds and used feathers of our choice.
