Term 4 Super Star

Mrs Henderson came to our Junior School Assembly this week to give out this term's special certificates to children who show excellence in all that they do at school.  This means that we give our very best...always!

Dylan is our E6 Term 4 Super Star who always gives his very very best.

We are so proud to have Dylan in our class.  

Dylan is very caring and helpful.  If anybody needs a hand with something Dylan is always first on the scene.  He helps teachers and children, not only in his class but all around the school.  

 Dylan loves to read stories.  He works so hard to read words he knows instantly and quickly.  When words are really tricky Dylan stretches them out like chewing gum!  He does this all by himself.   Dylan also reads aloud with amazing expression.  He is really good at thinking about how the character would sound and then reading the words to us in an interesting voice.  Dylan often makes us laugh and smile.

Dylan always tries very very hard at writing time.  He is a resilient learner.  Even though writing stories is hard work and tiring he never ever gives up.  Dylan has learned to boss his pencil around this year.  He can make his pencil write some amazing letter shapes! 

Dylan is also a bit of a math-magician.  He can add numbers to 5 super quickly in his head.  He  loves to count in lots of different ways.  Sometimes he skip counts to 200 in tens and we all clap for him! 

Dylan is awesome at speaking and reading te reo maori in our classroom.  He knows all the days of the week in Maori and he often helps us out when we do the calendar each day.    He can introduce himself in te reo, and if you ask Dylan "Kei te pehea koe?" he can answer you in lots of different ways!   

 You are a super star Dylan ...

Tino Pai!

We think you deserve Mrs Henderson's special award this term because no matter what we are doing in the classroom, you are showing excellence, and trying hard to give your very very best...always!
