English

Literacy learning in Term 1 will focus on phonics. This phonological understanding will be the foundation of children’s literacy development and they will enjoy a range of hands-on, multi-sensory activities to support their learning. Children will also develop their reading strategies and begin writing recounts of their experiences and retelling familiar stories.

Literacy assessments have begun and are going well. Literacy and Numeracy assessments will continue on Wednesdays for the first 6 weeks of Term 1. There will be no school for the Foundation students on these Wednesdays.
