Mini-fair Friday

Good afternoon,

Well, the fair was a little touch and go there for a while, what with the thunder storm and all, but thankfully the clouds parted and the afternoon turned out just loverly...











And now it's just stared to rain! Look at that!

Have a good weekend, I know I will (X Wing Regionals and Joe Satriani here I come!)

Mr Grant

Oh, and if you're curious as to what the choir and I got up to this morning, please click here. Wish us luck for tonight!

Join the Dots Thursday

Good afternoon,

This morning, after a bit of fitness...




...we had a bit of a performing kind of morning for reading. First with Parakaraka...


...then Kahurangi...


:-)

Then after lunch, we discussed the lineage of Mary, as laid out in the Gospel of Luke.



Tomorrow morning I'm out of the room taking the choir to practice for tomorrow night's performance. Mrs Macdonald will be in the room. Back after lunch.

Oh, and please remember your silver and copper coins for tomorrow afternoon's mini fair - 2:30 to 3:30.

Mask Me Wednesday

Good afternoon,

Today, after a spot of reading...


...we brought out our masks and moved around like our characters.






After school the Rutherford teachers planned a rather fun time for the Friday of Week 4. More later,

Mr Grant

Oh, and these from yesterday, again from Ma breaking down a Journal article about some swimming lessons.

Summery Friday...

...even when, quite frankly, it's not.



Good afternoon,

This morning, as well as reading a new poem, we finished off our masks.





















Thanks Jo for the help with the eyes,

Mr Grant

Mask Making Thursday

Good afternoon,

Sorry for the rush at the end of the day folks, we were a bit frantic trying to get our masks finished...







...'till I realised I could use some time tomorrow morning!

Thanks Emma and Hillaire...and Annie and Logan...for helping out,

As well as a bit of topic related art, after morning tea...


...we also did a spot of reading this morning...


...all organised, practised and performed without any Teacher intervention. Great stuff!

Mr Grant

Oh, and happy 21st wedding anniversary Tracy!
