We hope you've had a great start to the week.
With Auckland still in lockdown we're continuing to work away at our distance learning tasks. Here are some of the latest pieces of work we've sent through to Miss Nodder. We hope you enjoy reading them as much as she did. 😊
Kia ora koutou!
Here in Auckland we're into our fourth week of lockdown. It's starting to get very hard and some of us are missing school a LOT! Fortunately, we can still communicate and learn through the wonderful world of technology! 😊
Hansen Class have been busy busy, meeting every morning through Google Meet and completing lots of distance learning tasks. Take a look at what we've been up to on the slide deck below.
A big thank you to our families for helping us with our learning while we are at home.

Earlier this month we celebrated Father's Day! Because we're still in lockdown, and can't go out to the shops, we had to get creative with our Father's Day gifts.
Check out some of the awesome cards we made for our dads. 😊

The Delta variant of Covid-19 has made it's way to New Zealand's shores so we are currently in level 4 lockdown. This means that we have returned to distance learning.
One of our fabulous Hansen Class writers has written an acrostic poem about life at alert level 4. He's done an amazing job, coming up with sentences that begin with the letters of LOCKDOWN, as well as making sure that each sentence is relevant to the topic - well done Utu! 👏😊
Lock the doors.
Our streets are empty.
Cooking at home.
Keep away from people.
Don't go near anyone.
Online learning.
Wear a face mask.
Now it's level 4.

This term we are looking at the cultures in our classroom. The past two weeks have been dedicated to looking at the Pasifika cultures; Tongan, Samoan, Niuean and Cook Islands Māori. We have been using dual language texts to explore the languages of these cultures during shared reading.
On the third day of reading our dual language stories we looked at the keywords that would help us order and sequence the events from the stories. We then matched these keywords with the Tongan and Samoan translations and the illustrations from the books. Next, we sequenced the story in English and then in Tongan and Samoan. We used the original matching activities to help us identify the keywords in the sentences.
We are so lucky that some of our classmates speak Samoan and Tongan and could read the stories to us and help us pronounce the new words we were learning (Thank you Renesmee, Xayvion, Utu and Line! 😃).
Here's some pictures of us working together to complete the tasks, as well as of our finished work.
