Congratulations to Dominic for reading 75 nights!

Congratulations to Mohith for reading 25 nights!

 

In Word Study this week, we learnt the digraph sound ‘th’. We had a go writing the sound, sounding out words that contain the ‘soft th’ and the ‘hard th’ and then put them into sentences. Over the week the students were then asked to find words that contain the ‘th’ sound in picture books as well as write these word in rainbow, pyramid and sentence writing.

In Writers Workshop, we began looking at KUNG FU PUNCTUATION! This is to help us remember to punctuate our work when writing. You may like to try it at home 🙂

In Maths, we have continued our work on PATTERNS. We have created AB, AAB, ABB and ABC using objects, colours, numbers and shapes.

In Technologies, we used our designs from last week to create and make our EMOJI MASKS! The students were very creative and enjoyed creating and sharing their masks with their peers.

In Religion, the children explored The Visitation (Luke 1:39-56). Have a look at our work retelling the story through illustrations.

 

 

In Science, we discussed the 4 seasons being Summer, Autumn, Winter and Spring. The students shared things they already knew about each season and were asked to draw a picture of what each season looks and feels like. We then also explored which months of the year happen in each season.
