Geometry

For the last two weeks we have been exploring Geometry.  We have looked at 2D and 3D shapes, symmetry, reflection, rotation, translation and tessellation.  We have been using shapes to create pictures.  Here are a couple of pictures that the children have created.

Everyone has poster their tessellation patterns and their 2D shape pattern to their blog. We are looking forward to seeing if we get any comments.

Term Two

Welcome to Term Two.
We all had a very exciting morning with a visit from the U20's New Zealand Football team.  They bought along the World Cup Trophy that they will be playing for next year.  We all got to have our photo taken with it.  We also got to player little games and learn lots of skills and tricks from the team.


Adam has met Beckham.

Nikora was a star!
