Perseverance

Nevaeh spent a long time today making a bear puppet. She tried really hard to use different textures and add parts to it. She adapted her model to make the pieces fit. She was very proud of her finished model. We were all proud of her too.

Matthew also made a model at home. The children in school enjoyed asking him questions about it.

Well done for your fantastic models

Peace at last

Peace at last
This week we are going to focus our literacy learning on Peace at Last by Jill Murphy. Today we are going to listen to the story and compare the rooms, characters and sounds within the story.
You could share the book or listen to it on the YouTube clip.
We are learning to read and understand simple sentences. If you are gold standard (pink or red 2A) you are beginning to read the words and sentences. If you are green standard (red 2B or yellow) you are focusing on sounding out the words and reading the sentences. Do you understand the simple sentences?
