Finns' hangi experience

Easter weekend- we put a hangi in the ground, Finn had to help with the preparation of the meat and veges, Finn

helped the boys dig the hole and get the fire going, we then waited for 4 hours and while we waited we went to shoot a goat and put the goat into the river to try get an

 eel. So we put a line down in the river and left it there for a few hours, and we went home and had our yummy hangi for dinner then went back down and checked our line with the hook on it and had an eel. We had such a good Easter weekend on farm.

  The hangi food looked so tasty.

 What was the best part of making 

a hangi Finn?

Happy Harper

Writing words

I  think I know what Pippa has been up to today.  Do you think that she watched the word video this morning 

 and quickly wrote the words down.

 How many words can you write now?

Look what Pippa did today. It's such a fun thing to make 

and fly a kite.

I wonder what your friends  are learning.

Benny's photos

Hi Mrs Loudon...today I collected all my creatures and ordered them from smallest to biggest then counted how many there were. Some of them were so old that mum used to have and my sister and brothers too. There were 20! I wrote all the numbers and gave each toy their number. Then I put on a puppet show to my family with mummy. 

It was so funny!

 You look very pleased with yourself Benny! What a great way to learn about writing numbers and putting them in order to 20!

 Hello Benny and the puppets.  I hope the dinosaur isn't going to eat the elephant!

I wonder if your puppets might like to join 

you for a picnic!

Pippa's picnic.

We had afternoon tea down at the park today. 

We made pikelets.

From Pippa

loved them!

I wonder where else children are going to have their picnics. Please send me your photos.

Heze's find!

I went for a walk and found a peacock feather and decided to try and turn it into a writing pen like they used in the olden days. 

Did it work? Yes it did and I am so happy to do my writing with my new pen now 🦚

   

Wow Heze. What a great pen!

 What could you find to write with!

The last photo is of me on the first day back at Home School doing some writing.I have enjoyed my new teacher but she's nothing like you Mrs Loudon.
