Language, Maths and Unit this week.....

This week has been full of reading, sight words, jolly phonics and guided reading groups.  The children have been doing such a fabulous job with all of these activities and everyone wrote their very own sentence this week for journal writing!!  Amazing!!  We have also been talking about words that end with 'at' we watched a great episode of "Alphablocks" that has been helping us find all the words.

Check out what we have been doing:

We have been adding to ten this week in Maths.  We have been trying to find all the ways you can make ten.  We have been writing in numbers eg: 8+2=10, using our tens frame, number lines, number hopscotch, unifix cubes and singing lots of songs.

See us in action:

It has been a busy week with Unit of Inquiry.  We have made milkshakes, sequenced pictures, read many books by an amazing author - Eric Carle.  We are now making our very own books based on the story "The very hungry caterpillar" By Eric Carle.  The children are the author and creating a new character so they will have "The very hungry......"  We will be sharing our books with our buddy class - Ms Anita's Grade 2/3.  We have also been walking around the school taking pictures of the systems that we see.  We are now sorting our pictures and deciding which ones are systems and which are not. 

We have had our first 
Mystery Reader!!

 A very big thank you to Ms Paula who came to our class to read!!  The children were so surprised to see "Cat in the hat" walk into our classroom and read us that (The Cat in the Hat) story! It was a very funny book and the children really enjoyed having someone different do a read aloud.
