Links

Here is the link to the site to make the Tiger enclosure. Sorry for the wrong address! It is a fantastic site to investigate with your children!


This site is also a way of getting more ICT into the classroom. In developmental we had a play on this site Art Rage. It is a free download for Macs and PC, so does not have all the tools, but it is a neat way to draw on the computer. Have fun and explore. Click on the image below.






I hope that those of you who down loaded art rage have had fun. Another link that I have found is Fun Brain. It is filled with educational games (but the ones from edalive are great too, and raise money for our school).

FUN BRAIN LINK

I know that we have some High School Musical Fans out there. I am going to the stage show myself. I thought that you might like to have a look at some of the vidoe clips (if you don't have the DVD already) They are off you tube and there are some aspects of this site that may need parental supervision.

Also there are links to Hi 5 as I know we have fans of that in Alcove 4 too. SO have a look and then you can search for your other favourites too.

Hi 5
Here is a link to an Astronomy site for kids. We have had a look at it with the Syndicate the other week, so have a play with your children.

Easter Hunt


Easter is on it's way and the Easter Bunny is in training! He contacted Mrs Pepperell at our school and asked if we could help him. He said that he would race around and deliver eggs for the Kowhai children and we would rush around and find them. He chose the Kowhai children because he knew they were good at sharing! He asked if the children could find all the eggs and put them in the basket, and then each child would be able to have one, even if they couldn't find one! Have a look at our slide show. It shows a sneak peak at how we got on!

Welcome

Hi to all our family and friends,

This is Alcove 4's Blog. We are a year 2 class in Wellington New Zealand. We do heaps of neat things in our class and this is a cool way for us to share them with our best friends and families that may live far away!
