Kia Kaha

Today we had a visit from Constable Carl, he came by to talk to us about bullying and the different ways people can bully us and what we can do to stop them. Like standing up for yourself or going to find a teacher. 

 We did some role plays on the different ways people could bully us and the ways that we could respond 

We then played a game of simon says and the lucky person who won got to choose a prize form Constable Carl. 

Remember its not okay to hurt someone and say sorry if you need to.

Today in reading we were talking about 'Activating Prior Knowledge'. This is when we think about what we already know about the topic. We activated our prior knowledge reading the book, 'The Lion Sleeps Tonight' here is the clip from the movie The Lion King that goes along with this book. Sing along!
