Hola Zoe!



How cool was that!
We talked to you Zoe.
It is amazing that we talked to you on the other side of the world!
We liked seeing you and your family except Hunter cause he was asleep. Say Hi! to him for us.
We thought you were really clever to be able to answer all our questions.Our voices took a while to get to you so it was tricky for you to hear.
It was fun seeing inside your apartment.
It must be fun using the lift every day!

Spain seems quite close , Torbea said, "Spain feels like it is just around the corner!"
What a small world we live in.

Computers can talk!

We are excited because on Thursday we are going to talk to Zoe on our computer! We are going to SKYPE Zoe in Spain. Zoe will have to wake up at 11 o'clock at night so she can talk to us! We can't wait. We are going to ask her heaps of stuff about Spain and about what she has been doing.

Destination Spain!


Hola!
We are learning all about Spain .
So far we have found out a few words in Spanish and we know what the flag looks like.
We know that Spain is on the other side of the world from New Zealand and it is a really big country.Spain is bigger than NZ but smaller than Australia.We found out by looking at our map of the world.

We are busy working out what things are the same in NZ as in Spain.

Did you know that kids go to school in Spain too!

Lots of the oranges we eat here are from Valencia.

We have flown to Spain on the Google Earth plane! So cool! We even found the old wall that Zoe walked on. How clever is that!

Adios!

Look at these!





Here are the portrait paintings we did last term.
Portraits tell a story about the person. They help us to remember a person or something they did.
Our portraits tell the stories of how we were feeling.
Some of us were thinking about what it would feel like on a roller coster! Scared!...excited!...frightened!...
Grace was grumpy because George stole her money!,
Kiera was sad because Max ran her over on his bike!
Shawn was happy because he had a new BMX.

We are really proud of our artworks.
