LITERACY
Reading & Writing
This term we will continue to use an evidence-based approach to our Literacy learning. Our Literacy Block will continue to consist of reinforcing the core literacy skills which include, fluency, phonological awareness, heart words (irregular spelling patterns), handwriting and the Sounds Write Phonics Program.
Our Literacy focus this term will be on non-fiction texts. The students will be learning about the features of information texts, will be reading and exploring a wide range of topics and will be learning to write and create their own informative pieces.
In Phonics, we've now covered the common sound for all of the letters of the alphabet! Over this term we'll be learning to blend the sounds we've learnt to read words with more than 3 sounds such as 'jump', 'stop' and 'truck'.
Sunshine Library is a fantastic resource that has wonderful programs and books to explore, as a way to foster a love of reading with your child.
