Word Study- This term, we are focusing on becoming more independent writers and encouraging the students to be brave spellers. The students will have more opportunities to create their own sentences during our word study time. We also are reinforcing the names and sounds of the letters of the alphabet.
Book Making- This week, we looked at different published books and the way that they are organsied. Some were organised by colour, some were organised by topic and others organised by lists.
Mathematics- The students used flip tiles and a 10 frame grid to make additions that equals 10. They then recorded these in their books.
Science- The learning this term will be centered around the weather. We had discussions about what the students already know about the weather, and they displayed their knowledge on a piece of paper.
Technologies- This term, our learning will be to do with foods. For this activity, we discussed foods that we like and foods that we don’t like. The students recorded some of these in columns.
Have a great weekend and we will see you on Monday.
Paul and Michelle.
