Hello Foundation Families, 

 

This week in Foundation students explored making and writing numbers. We played different Maths games to build fluency and practised writing our numbers to 9. 

 

In English, students identified the favourite part of their story that we read as a whole class. We read Jeremy, Leo The Littlest Seahorse and No Goat Zone and learnt the letters j, l, m, n, k! In the story Jeremy, students predicted where they think Jeremy may have gone when he flew away from the house that helped raise him. 

Check out some of FT's responses!

Beau- I think Jeremy flew to another nest

Freddy- Jeremy flew to my house

Soren- Jeremy flew to see the birds on the wire 

Sadie- Jeremy went to the beach

Olivia- Jeremy flew to school

 

We also watched a very funny video called "Birds On the Wire". And made our very own birds on a wire!

 

Student Voice

Bella: "I liked drawing"

Zayn: "I liked playing with my friends"

Hazel: "I liked the story Leo the Seahorse"
