On behalf of Mrs Lologa and Mrs Young, we would like to thank everyone who participated in today’s online learning. Apologise at the end of our lesson we ran out of time during our kahoot but Polevia was our winner.
We started at 11am and finished at 12.30pm. We had 11 children attend:
Break down of our whakatauki:
Feedback from assembly
Can we make any improvements. Very different from senior and middles. Put the childrens picture up on the big screen when they receive prize.
We couldn’t hear the sound. (Tina - Polevias mum)
(Chris mum - )Face book live was much better than the zoom. Sound quality was good. Other people were saying it wasn’t good on the zoom. How did you find out about the Facebook live? Found out in the morning. Let parents know about videos being posted up on face book.
Visualisation activity. - The invisible string
Discussion of something that touched your heart.
Sina: When you feel lonely at night you can look up at the sky and see the stars and talk to anyone as they can see the same stars that we see.
Polevia: Trees with a heart. No matter how far we are we are still connected to eachother.
Christopher - Clouds with rain coming down on the house.
Kayden - saw an octopus, love heart. I saw an octopus, teddy bear, bunny so I thought id draw them from the book. I wanted to draw the white string but i didnt have a white pen. Invisible means you can’t see it.
Indigo: When I was scared my mum said don’t be scared ill always be in your heart even when Im not there.
2nd zoom: Maths - houses, family of facts

Thank you for attending our online session today!
It sure was a fun session, I didn’t personally count how many were online today, luckily Mrs Zhao took a screenshot of us all and as you can see we had a great turnout….
We started off with our Karakia Timatanga
We then moved onto our story for today….
We discussed what made the Grinch change his mind, what made him have a change of heart towards Christmas!
Then we took time to go over the questions and the students helped us circle the correct answers….
After answering the multi-choice questions, we moved onto our spelling activity for today - Christmas Trees! (Pyramid words)...
For Maths we introduced Division and spoke about equal sharing…
Together we worked one a problem and got the children to give us ideas on how to speed up the ‘working out time’....
This is what some of the students called out during the maths lesson…
Then we did a double facts maths challenge!
Today was a great session - I am super proud of you all!
Keep up the smart work you are doing at home x
Friday Funday
Online session 3/12/21
Hosted by Mrs Lologa, Mrs Mokalei & Ms Haynes
It was such a pleasure to be part of today's online session!
Wow, we sure have some talented artists at FBS……
We had 17 students online today!!
We started off with a whakatauki and discussed what it meant to us as teachers to the students…
We then moved onto shout outs to our Tamariki for completing and sharing their online work with us!
We then listened to a story and doodled while we listened to the words!
We shared our doodling and the teacher’s shared their drawings and talked through what we drew and why we drew it the way we did…
Maths: We worked on Splitting numbers to help us with multiplying double digit numbers.
After our maths talk….. We did a drawing session teaching us step by step how to draw a character!
Add pictures of our own attempts!

Wednesday Online Session 1/12/21
Hosted by Mrs Zhao, Ms Haynes & Ms Young
WOW…. Another great turnout today, I think we had 14 students online and 3 teachers.
I love this online engagement - keep up the amazing online work that you are all doing!
Today we started off with our Karakia and our FBS pepeha…. Thank you Ms Young for leading our FBS Pepeha.
We then sang and went over the actions for the Six 60 NZSL -My Pepeha song!
After the song we read a story called - Rat on the rug. We asked a number of students to read different parts of the story making it a team effort creating a shared story moment together...
Mrs Zhao went over the writing worksheet for today in segments based on the story we read.
Your writing task for today is to think of an interesting story ending - did the fat cat catch the slow grey rat? Or did the grey speedy rat escape? Mmmmmmmm
After our story, we played a maths warm up game online…
Then Mrs Zhao taught us about the Place Value House family - 3 siblings lived in the house little brother names ‘ONES’, middle brother named ‘TENS’ and big sister named ‘HUNDREDS’
We spent time working on a few number problems using base 10 blocks….
When you have 9 (Ones) and you are given 1 more you make 10; this row of blocks connected together represent 1 row of 10 (Ten).
We learnt that to add faster we add the tens and then we count the ones.
We would like you to try and work out the last math page like the working out we did together (see picture below in green rectangle box).
We ended off with another Math quiz based on the place value system!
Check out how smart our Tamariki are!!!!
Ending our online session with our closing Karakia!
Monday Online Learning Session
29/11/21 Hosted by Mrs Zhao & Ms Haynes
Today was a great day for us online - we had so many students turn up to be part of our fun online session today!
We started off with a story about a little girl that liked to dream when she slept.
The story was called - Remember to dream Ebere
We then introduced our learning for today and went over the School Pepeha….
Well Done to Zapphire (Mum) and Jezrkaya who read out the FBS Pepeha for us!
After reading the FBS pepeha, we looked at rhyming words - the main idea was that words had the same ending sound!
We then had the opportunity to listen to Mrs Zhao read a poem. While Mrs Zhao read to us, we listened out for rhyming words….
Check out the photos of our rhyming word detectives that listened for rhyming words in the poem!
We also had time to go over a multiplication word problem!
Check out how we solved question number 3…
We made tidy 10s and took away 7 as we discussed that it was easier to skip count in 10s than to add 9+9+9+9+9+9+9=
We then had time to sing along and learn NZ sign language to go with the six 60 - Pepeha song!
To end off our online learning we played a game of hangman!!
The word was Rhyming.

The dragons helped by sizzling the sausages on the bbq with their fire.

We then took a look at our sound knowledge and looked at ‘Dr’ words, extending their learning to the idea that when you change the end suffix you will create more words!
