We are kind to ourselves

I am organised at school

I bring my bag in by myself and put it in my locker...“because I am independent and capable”

I sign in..."so that my teacher knows I am here and I can practise recognising and writing my name with correct formation.”

I return my own book and borrow a new reading book...“so I can read for pleasure at home.”

I put my folder in the basket..."to make sure that I am organised for any notes that need to come home."

I take my own lunch order the office before the bell...“so that Ms Trudy can order my lunch!"

I return my library book to my class box..."so that I can borrow a new one each week!”

I am a well-being warrior!

I bring 1 healthy eating snack in its own skin or cut in a container..."so I can give myself energy and nutrients to be my best.”
I bring 1 manageable recess snack and 1 lunch meal ..."to give me energy. So that’s 3 or 4 things in my lunchbox only!”

I wear a hat at recess and lunch time...“so that I am protected from the weather.”

I read a lot at school and learn many new reading and comprehension strategies so I can understand what I am reading. I might bring home some examples of these so you know what I am focussing on to improve.
At home, I want to practise these strategies by reading every night. Sometimes I might bring the same book home more than once and that’s okay!
My teachers have written some of the strategies down and ask that you listen to me read patiently, helping me when I ask.

They have written some questions you might want to ask me to make sure I am understanding what I am reading.

Let’s record the books I read EVERY night! I wonder how many I can get to by the end of the year?

They would also love for you to read to me! I can record these books for the Premier's Reading Challenge.

I read every night and practise my star words because these tasks are at the base of my Connect 4 Mellor Grid in Blue.
I work through the other tasks in Yellow over the 3 weeks!
