Word Study- This term, we will be encouraging the students to continue to be brave spellers during our word study time. We have seen such growth with the students’ writing skills since the start of the year.

Bookmaking- This week, we started the topic, “Stories From Our Lives”. We had discussions about activities the students did in the holidays, and activities they have done in the past. This is what they could base their books on.
