Foundation W

Wow! What a wonderful start to the term we have had together. Learning lots of new concepts and enjoying all experiences of being at a big school. ⭐😊

We have loved making new friends, going to the Church for class masses and trying our best when learning new ideas to keep our brains growing stronger. 

In Literacy, we have been focusing on learning new letters and the sounds they make. We have been practicing sounding out new words and writing them all by ourselves.

Our knowledge rich unit has been looking at family history and what makes our families special. Students drew places that are special to themselves and their families. 🏠♥

We have been practicing our reading EVERY DAY with lots of new sounds and words to read. We love reading our fluency passage with our partners!

In Mathematics, we have been practicing our counting skills and have been learning about partitioning numbers using the concept of part-part whole e.g. 8 and 2 makes 10. We have been using counters and ten frames to support our learning. 

Congratulations to all the foundation students on their wonderful start to their first semester at school, we are so proud of their learning and growth! 🥳
