I Am Learning to Count in Twos


We have been learning to count in twos. We usually do it in the morning when we look at the calendar. We played this game on the ipad today.

"I am learning to count in 2s. Using the counters and the boards was easy. Now I will try to count without using the numbers."

I Am Learning to Sound Out Words That Begin With Blends


We have been using the ipads to listen and find the sounds in words beginning with blends.

"I can find the words. I can make the words. It is fun."

Fantastic Frogs


As a follow up to our poem ‘Frog Song’ and our Big Book, we sketched frogs. We coloured them with pastels. We then had fun drawing flies and sticking on wobbly eyes. We think they look cool!

When I Grow Up


We have had lots of visitors from our community who have talked to us about their jobs. We wrote a story about what we would like to be when we grow up.

"I worked hard on my story. It was a long one. I think I drew a great picture."

I Am Learning to Read A Book on the Computer


During Reading time we have turns of the computer. We read the PM Readers. We read the same colour as the books we read with Mrs Grainger. We listen to the story first, then we do the activities. We try to get 4 coloured animals at the bottom of the screen. This shows we have answered the questions correctly the first time. A grey animal shows we had to try again to get the correct answer.

" I chose 'Clever Fox' because I like this story. I have read it before with Mrs Grainger in class. I got two grey because these answers were not correct the first time. Next time I will try to get four coloured dogs.

I Am Learning to Proofread My Story



We walked to Archmillion Park. We had a map with clues to follow. We had to find the treasure. It was fun. We wrote about our treasure hunt. We are learning to check our story for capital letters, full stops and does it make sense.

" I read my story to check it makes sense. I put full stops at the end of my sentence and a capital letter at the beginning."
