Thursday – Week 6 – Term 2

Welcome to a fun filled Thursday

The Calendar

Our Learning

Today during come read with me – the children were asked to find words that had the digraph ‘ow’ in their reading books. Super spotting team!

Shared Text – ‘oi’ digraph

 

Literacy Rotations

Today’s focus for our literacy rotations:

Red Group

  • Editing a text
  • Listing ‘oi’ words and constructing a sentence.

As a group we read the text –

 it woz hot day and wet to the sop to by sum ice-cream and the ice-cream woz $2 and had to ask mum four the coins and she give me to coins and I wet and buyed the ice-cream and it woz yum and then I wet hom

Then we looked for things that were wrong – words that didn’t look right OR words that didn’t make sense. Together we edited the text.

Blue Group

  • Pronouns – he, she and I
  • Literacy game – letter bingo

Some photos from both groups:
