SNAG Golf



Kiaora!

On Thursday we had our first SNAG golf lesson with Shannon! We had a great time learning how to play golf!



Here Shannon is telling us what to do and showing us how to play the games.


We rolled the ball to the target and the other person took it off and stuck it on the back

I rolled the ball and Geneva stuck it on - Emmanuel

We practiced rolling the ball - Arnav



This time we were trying to get the ball inside the hoop.

Shannon showed us how to hit the ball with the club. "Hands together, feet together, toes pointing to the ball, arms straight".


We showed the others what to do - Isla



If we got the ball inside the hoop, we got 1 SNAG. If we got it on the flag, we got 2 SNAGS - double SNAG!! 

Thanks Shannon, we cant wait to have another go this Thursday!

Making an ambulance!


Kiaora!

This week we have been learning about how an ambulance and ambulance officers can help us with our problems. If you're hurt or sick you can call the ambulance and the ambulance officers will come and help you. They might even take you to the hospital.

We learnt that an ambulance is yellow, green, and white. It has a siren and flashing lights.
We also learnt to dial 111 to call an ambulance.

After finding out about an ambulance and ambulance officers, we made a collage ambulance by colouring in some paper, cutting it up, and sticking it onto an outline of an ambulance.
Here we are colouring the paper black for the wheels

Here we are cutting up the paper into small pieces.

Christiaan is cutting up the yellow paper

Isla is sticking on the yellow paper

We used glue sticks to stick on the paper


Here we are all gluing and sticking the paper on

 
Our ambulance is almost finished! We need to add a few more bits of paper and some labels and then it will be up on the wall in the classroom for all to see!
