Counting on from 5

I am learning to keep 5 in my head and count on.  We play the board games to help us practice this.

" I can do the dice counting.  I roll the dice and I put the counter on the number.  I put 5 in my head and count it up." said Hannah

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 myself because we robot them at Story writing, Phonics and Reading" said Hannah

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 do full stops and capital letters in the right place.  I can do great story writing." said Hannah

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.

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!

Before and after

You are trying to recognise the number before a number in the range 10-20. You have to put a peg on the correct number. The before numbers are a bit tricky.

"I like the i pads. My favourite games are on the computers." Hannah

Beginning sounds

I am learning to make the first sound in words I do not know so I can try and work them out by myself.

Student lead conferences

Here you are sharing your learning with your family at your Student Lead Conference. This was a great chance to celebrate the progress you have made so far this year.

Reading

I am learning to use the illustrations to help me work out what is happening in the story.

Hannah said " I can see the pictures because then I can read it.  I can listen to the sounds of the words."

Maths

I am learning to write my numbers in the correct order. I can do this using a dice and counting backwards.

Hannah said " I can do the number in the rocket to fill it all up."

Scooter day

We are learning to keep ourselves safe when we are on a scooter.

Story writing

I am learning to write my story by myself.  I can use my word card and my sounds to help me write the words.

Hannah said " I can robot some words so I can hear some sounds."
