I apologise for the delay. I hope you all had a wonderful long weekend.

During Literacy we have continued focusing on making our books and ensuring that we include the writing techniques we have been noticing authors include in their published books. During Word Study we have continued studying different high frequency words, learning how to read them, how to spell them and how to use them to create sentences.

Last week we had a couple of new students start – Shimmer and Jack. They are a bit different from the rest of the students in the class with the main point of difference being that they are Fan Tail Goldfish.

The children were very excited to meet our two new class pets. They decided on their names and researched how to care for pet goldfish before creating information books about how to care for goldfish.
