Prep Learning Reflection

In Literacy this week, we have been learning about the letters j, w and z! We’ve been practicing the sounds of the letters by building, writing and reading words with the sounds. Now, so far this year we've learnt s, a, t, i, m, n, o, p, b, c, g, h, d, e, f, v, k, l, r, u, j, w and z! 

Our morning Core Literacy Block has been really consistent this term and the students have done an amazing job, practising sounds, letter names, heart words and handwriting! This week we've introduced the heart words was, he and as. 

Each week, we’ve been diving into a new text and learning a variety of new vocabulary words. The past 2 weeks we've read The Very Cranky Bear (Nick Bland) and Waddle Giggle Gargle (Pamela Allen) and have been talking about problems and solutions in narratives. 

In Numeracy, we’ve been comparing tens frames and using 'more', 'less' and 'the same' and have also been counting up to ten on our tens frames and learning about place value - "ten ones make one ten!".
