Welcome back to Term 3!

 

This week in English we:

-focused on the letters/sounds ‘u’ and ‘k’, using these sounds in our reading and writing.

-became Brave Spellers. Doing ‘brave spelling’ will be a big focus this term. Students are encouraged to stretch out the word they are wanting to write and use their letter/sound knowledge and tricky words to write sentence. We are also adding capital letters and full stops to our sentences

-began writing our information texts.

-read decodable readers that feature our learnt sounds and tricky words

 

 

 

In maths we are revising numbers 0-20 (with a challenge to 100). We participated in group investigations and applied our knowledge to create number lines.
