Terrific Tuis Class Party on PhotoPeach

The Terrific Tuis have spent the first term (and this  week) enjoying this hilarious tale from David Walliams. We were all a little sad today when we finally read the last page.

What the Terrific Tuis had to say about this book…..

•  The funniest parts were when the soccer team all dressed as girls and the headmaster dressed as his sister
• I learnt that anybody can wear anything
• The saddest part was when everybody laughed at  Dennis (Denise) wearing a dress
• The happiest part was when Dennis apologised to Miss Winter
• The book was really funny, especially when Raj dressed up as a girl too
• The best bit was when Dennis put on the orange, sequinned dress
• The funniest bit was when Dennis said ” I ‘d better not cry in front of my future wife!”
• Boys can wear what they want to

We can definitely recommend this book!

Mrs N-C had a read of this article and wonders how many of these things our Terrific Tuis have had a go at.

Read it here and please tell me

1. your favourite experience on the list

This basic fact page has both add/sub and mult/div facts and I thoroughly recommend this as part of basic fact learning. The site is where teachers get a lot of their activities from.

A few days ago we had to save bean , tomatoes and capsicum seeds, it was really fun.I got to fetch seeds. I was really fast.Corwin harvested the seeds.Corwin looked like he was having trouble,so I wanted to do it. So  I wish he would have listened to me. We are saving seeds to plant next spring in our garden.

In Tui class Mrs NC brought some tadpoles.  First we got some pond water. Then we didn’t know what to feed them but then Emma thought we could feed them letters.  So we did.  Then our tadpoles were happy and safe.  I love our TADPOLES!!!!!!!!!!
