Numbers to 20

I am learning to recognise numbers to 20.  I can stand on the large number line when the number is called out.  I am also learning the before and after numbers.

"I can run to 20 because I counted very fast." said Max

Phonics

We are learning to listen and record the sounds we can hear.  We are able to blend the sounds altogether.  We can use our phonics at Story writing and Reading time to help us.

"I can write words by sounding it out.  I can robot words at Story writing and Reading time."  said Max

Making Pizza

We made pizza as a class, using ingredients that we had grown ourselves. 

These photos show the writing process. We started with the 'draft stage', where students try to use the skills they have been taught. After 'conferencing' with the teacher and 'editing', they produce the 'published work' for their audience to enjoy.

"I can write words and letters by myself" said Max

Paper bear

We learnt how to draw a teddy bear looking at the different shapes that make up the head and arms. We wrote about our bear and published it onto a paper bag.

Cats

I have been learning how to draw a cat.  I can mix colours together and I can also use charcoal to show shading.

Making the beginning sound

I am learning to make the beginning sounds in a word to help me work it out.  I can re read the sentence to fix up a mistake so my reading makes sense.

" I am so good at reading now. I am good at my alphabet now." Max

Deep in the compost bin!

As part of our inquiry we have been looking at creatures that dwell in the darkness of our compost bins.

After we observed and handled these creatures, watched video clips and read books about them; we wrote these fabulous stories.

Part of the writing process is presenting our finished work in a way the captures our readers attention. We hope you enjoy viewing our quality work!
