Tui's Garden - Behind the Scenes

We made the movie because we love honeybees.  We wanted to tell people to plant for bees.

I used the camera to video the movie and I did some puppeteering.  I coloured in lots of clothes and coloured in some puppets.

I made a house for the backdrop.

The best part was filming because it was a very important job.

Frozen room...

Honeybee Garden...

Room 6 planted flowers for the bee garden because we love honey bees. This is why we planted a bee garden.  

Honeybees are in danger so plant for bees!

Room 6 loves honey, so please help the honeybees.  Plant flowers that honeybees like.  Honeybees like lavender, camellia's and lemon trees.

We planted lavender, sage, oregano, cat mint, sunflowers, cosmos and seeds for bees.  We watered the gar dent, that's why it grows.  Room 6 love Honeybees!  From Summer and Lily.

The seeds for bees have germinated!

Honey tasting...

Nicholas: 'I like the High Peak honey.'  Lily: 'The Manuka honey is yummy!'

Summer: 'The Manuka honey is really healthy.'  Maliyah: 'My favorite type of honey is Beech Forest honey, it tastes delicious!'  Leyam: 'I like the comb honey because it is sweet!'

Nathan: 'My favorite was the natural comb honey because it was sugary.'  

Chloe & Charlotte: 'I didn't like the honey because it was too strong and minty.'

The fair...

In the holidays I went to a fair.  I went on the ferris wheel and it was fun.  I went round and round.  After that I went on the playground.

Bumble Bee Up Close!

On Monday Chloe found a  bumble bee.  Look at its eyes!  They are very big. What caller is the bumble bee?  The bumble bee was 2 cm long.

Can you see the bumble bee's eye?

What is the weird thing coming out of the bumble bee's mouth?

Can you see the bumble bee's feet?

What is this?

What is the body covered with?

My holiday

I like Rigby because he is my best friend.

In the holidays I went to the beach.  I watched the waves.

I went to Kaiapoi gardens.  The flowers were beautiful.  

I went to the Canterbury Museum.  I looked at the dinosaur skeletons and I went on a large bike.

We got Minions on our Christmas tree!

What we think we know...

We created popplets to share what we think about living things.

It's a Livin' Thing… Living World - How do they live?  How do they survive? Where do they live?  What to they need to survive?

Strength Bear Boga Boga...

I am good at swimming.  I practise my swimming and I can put my head underwater.
