Year 1 Bulletin
Learning Intention – To locate the /wh/ digraph in our everyday surroundings.
Learning Experience Overview:
Each week our Investigation lessons will focus either on a Maths, English or Wellbeing theme. One of the English-based activities students will complete is the search for blends or digraphs around the classroom. This lesson, we looked at the /wh/ digraph, as in whale. |
We do:
As a class, we made a poster brainstorming different words that use the /wh/ digraph. The students brainstormed words and their teacher added them to the chart along with a drawing.

You do:
During our investigations, our reporter and photographer are sent out – with their clipboard and iPad respectively – to explore where they might find this sound, and to record this information in whichever way they see best fit.
Share and reflect:
At the end of each Investigations session we come together to present our findings. Our reporter and photographer will use their clipboard and iPad as props to share what they have been working on and what they found.
