Literacy
In Literacy, we have just completed all our Spelling Assessments for the year, and we are so proud of the growth the students have made.
In Reading, we are continuing to build on our reading strategies such as connecting, summarising, predicting, inferring and monitoring and re-reading. We are enjoying reading chapter books and writing a summary of each chapter. For Storybook, we are thoroughly engaged in the chapter book- The 27th Annual African Hippopotamus Race. At the end of each chapter, we write a summary.
We have been enjoying writing a range of poems, such as 1 and 2 worded poems, Haiku and Cinquain Poems as well as Similes. We are now in the publishing phase where we get to type our poems onto a Word document to go into our Published Folder.
Mathematics
In Mathematics, we are learning about Data, how to collect it in the form of a tally and create a graph from this data.
Religion
In Religion, we will be learning about the season of Advent and it's significance.
Inquiry
In Inquiry, we are learning all about how Christmas is celebrated in different countries and how their traditions differ from ours.
Thank you for your ongoing support.
