Today is the last day that Redcliff's School is at Sumner. On Tuesday they are starting at Van Asch.

Snow Day
For the last two days in Christchurch it has snowed, so we had Monday and Tuesday off school. Today we came back at 10am. There is still snow is Sumner. Miss Dippie let us go out in the snow and make a snowman.
Here are some photos of us playing the snow. Maybe you could suggest a name for our snowman or snow-woman.

Explanation Writing
For writing at the moment we are learning how to write explanations.
An explanation, explains how something is done or works.
Here is an example of an outstanding explanation about how cows make milk, by Ollie.
The words that are underlined are techinical words. You underline them when you are writing an explanation and then they are linked to the glossary.
How do cows turn grass into milk?
First the cow eats 70kgs of grass a day. The grass goes into the first two stomachs.
Then it is burped up as cud. The cud is chewed for one minute.
Next the cud goes through the last two stomachs. Now it becomes nutrients. It goes into the cows
bloodstream.
It goes into the udders and becomes milk.

Well done Ollie. That was a great example of an explanation!

Tennis Lesson
On Wednesday we had our first tennis lesson with Lynn and Sarah. We will get to have four lessons with them all together. The rest of the lessons are on Fridays.
We did some forhand shots. We were all pretty good at getting them over the net.
Sometimes we had to bounce the ball then hit it. That's what you do to serve.
Then Lynn and Sarah threw the ball to us and we had to hit it back.
