This is what we think Active Listening looks like.
We have been talking about what things help us to learn.
One thing we have decided is that if we are good listeners it helps us to learn more easily.
LISTENING ACTIVELY!
What does this mean?
-Looking at the person who is talking.
-Being able to remember the things you have heard.
-Asking questions when the speaker has finished talking -Sitting still so you can listen carefully. -Not talking while you are listening to someone tell you something.
We have been thinking about what to have as our goals.
Marshall has decided to work on sitting still on the mat.
Santana is trying to work without talking at writing time.
Isaac is learning to not talk when someone else is talking.
Tommy is trying hard to put his head under the water every time he goes swimming.

and have loads of fun in our new class.
Our class is called MOUTERE!
There are 15 kids and 1 teacher.
We are really lucky to be in such a cool class.
We have started the year talking about the things that make our classroom a happy place to learn.
Raewyn put a rocket on the wall to get us thinking about a new year and which way we want to go.
We have to figure out how we are going to get where we want to go and what we want as our goals for 2008.
