Maisie's Duck Pictures and Writing
We were all ready for a scooter ride we got our scooter we went down to the duck pond. We fed the
ducks.
The food we gave to the ducks and the duckling were popcorn seeds.
Lilou and me wish we could pet the furry ducklings.
Great writing about your day Maisie. The ducklings are so cute,
you are lucky you got to see them.
Lots of good information about bees Maisie, I like the pictures you
have selected for your slide show.

Maisie's Worm House and Weta
Maisie made a worm house and she also wanted to

Maisie's beeee-utiful bees
I notice that one has a sting and the other one doesn't.
Do you know the names of the different bees?
The lily is one of my favourite flowers too.
I'm glad you are happy at Granny house. Great full stops Maisie.
Maisie's Bee Poster
Your Ruru's look so cute sitting on the log.
That is an interesting wondering Maisie, they probably do eat little frogs.
Nice full stops at the end of your sentences. Kai Pai.

So many different types of Lizards Maisie.
I like the white lizard, he's really hard to see.
Well done.

Maisie wanted to share some art she learnt from Tate Museum.
What were you listening to while drawing?
What great cutting skills you've got Maisie.
I like the layering of shapes and the symmetrical
pattern.

Goldilocks and the Three Bears
Retold by Maisie
Wow, Maisie,
what a long story, you have put the story in order really well.
I like the way you have included your drawings in your writing.
Kia ora Maisie, thank you for sharing your story with us. I like your picture of Goldilocks - good job on her golden hair! Kia pai tō rā. (Have a good day.)
ReplyDeleteWell done Maisie, I know you do love writing and I love reading your stories. Good job!
ReplyDeleteKia Ora Maisie, yes I agree the lizards at your place have a great space to climb, rest, hide and explore. I think they will enjoy the shelter on a rainy day!
ReplyDeleteKia ora Ruma Tahi and ka pai Maisie. You're right about how lizards can be small. There are lots of tiny skinks that sit in the sun on my path. What was the special thing in your flowers? A lizard maybe?
ReplyDeleteKia Ora. A 🦋 is in my flower.
DeleteHi Maisie, your little ruru are very cute! I really like the way you have used different materials in you art. I sometimes hear a ruru call at night time where I live. I wonder what else ruru eat?
ReplyDeleteKia Ora Maisie, I see you have enjoyed the being crafty this week. I like the way you rolled the paper to make the bee's head and and added wings and antenna. Ka pai!
ReplyDeleteHi Maisie, it is great to come back to the blog to see what you have been learning about at home. I can see you are very interested in nature!
ReplyDeleteI am also very interested in the Whio. when I was at the zoo I found out that Whio have soft rubbery 'lips' at the end of their beak to help protect it from damage as they scape insect larvae off rocks. You can find more interesting information at the Auckland Zoo website. https://www.aucklandzoo.co.nz/animals/whio
Thank you Mrs Haines. Very interesting. I want to see the Whio when I visit the zoo again.
