Hello families and welcome to what week 3 looked like in our classroom! We ask that the children practise these songs at home in preparation for our assembly.
In Word Study this week, we introduced a new digraph sound to the children. We explored that when the letter W and the letter H team up together to make one sound they make the sound ‘wh’ as in whale. We engaged in handwriting activities, found the sound in picture books, creating sentences using ‘wh’ word and played in and out sound games. Have a look at our work.
Congratulations to Shayan and Zayin for reading 25 nights!
Congratulations to Marley and Audrey for reading 50 nights!
In Religion, we have been learning all about Mary! The students were asked to draw anything they know about Mary and have a go at writing a sentence to match. Some of the drawings that we saw were ‘Gabriel telling Mary she was pregnant, Mary having baby Jesus, Mary and Joseph, Mary and God and Baby Jesus in Bethlehem with Mary.
In Maths, we began a new topic all about Rainbow facts to 10! These facts are 2 numbers that when added together equal the number 10. All week the students engaged in a range of activities to practise their knowledge of these number facts. Have a look at our work!
In Technologies, we continued working on our design skills! This week we designed our very own character mask. The students were able to choose which character they wanted to make, draw their mask and have a go at labeling the materials they will need.

In art we have started to investigate how lines can affect our drawings. Check out some of the ways we used lines.
