News and Home Tasks Term 3 Week 7

Hi everyone
Another great week last week. Lots happening with Technology challenge preparation, great raps being composed, baby sitting brochures, band practice, kapahaka practice, preparing for the Winter Tournament, .... never a dull moment here at school that's for sure.

I love it when we have a good debate in class.  One of these was about whether the word vehicle has a long 'e' sound or short. I think it has a long 'e' sound, what do you think? Leave a comment to let us know.

Do take a look at the collaborative story at http://primarypad.com/mPGhLjiz8N James started the story and now the rest of the class are joining in and adding to it. It is worth visiting to read what they have written so far.

It was good to read Zarek's news.  We are still hanging out to hear from Matheus and Alex. Come on guys, don't be shy.  Hope you are both well and having a good time settling in to your new schools.
 

Cheers
Teressa

  2. Hi Room 7
    I think vehicle might have a short 'e' sound. It sounds longer because there is a very similiar sound coming from the 'hi' in vehicle and these 2 syllables run together when spoken.
    Isaac thinks it is a long e sound
    Great thing to do as a class

  3. It's easy to choose when you first here it, it's definitely a long 'e'.

  4. For me it's got to be the long 'e'. Easy
