We are learning about bears!

Panda Bears eat bamboo. They leave their scent by the bamboo. They don’t like to be with other animals. They run away from them and they scratch their heads because it is itchy.

Rhythm

The Grizzly bear is a brown bear. He has black eyes. He is cute and his little black nose is cute too. He scampers down to the river on his two strong legs. He opens his big mouth and you can see his sharp teeth.

Abby- Rose

Grizzly Bears catch salmon in their jaws from the river and they eat berries from the bush. They hibernate in Winter. They wake up in Spring. They live in a remote place far away from New Zealand.

Brodie

In China Panda Bears eat bamboo. If people kill Panda Bears they will become extinct.

Today we started learning about making symmetrical patterns. 

We are using our patterns to learn our doubles.

Buddy Time

Buddy Time on Friday was once again lots of fun. We taught our buddies a subtraction game and then showed them how good we are getting at reading- we can read like we are talking. Then our buddies told us a little about the production that is coming up. We will get to see our buddies on stage soon. Thank you buddies, we always love you coming to Room 13.
