Celebrating Learning

It’s great to return to Term 3 and observe settled and happy students who are able to work and learn openly together – so proud!

We continue small group rotations, using non-fiction decodable readers, games, and worksheets to practise our phonics. Here are our graphemes, so far:

/m/ mop
/s/ sat
/f/ fan
/a/ ant
/p/ pit
/t/ tip
/c/ cat
/i/ ink
/b/ bat
/h/ hat
/n/ net
/o/ pot
/d/ dog
/g/ goat
/l/ lid
/v/ volcano
/y/ yak
/r/ red

Numeracy

In Maths, students have been making, naming and ordering numbers to 20 and beyond. We are exploring the language of location through direction, following turns and counting steps to locate hidden items in the classroom.

Outdoor Play-Based Learning (PBL)

As a response to our colder days, the games club has moved to hot and sweaty games with tag the popular choice. Fairy houses with intricate details and well thought out design layouts are also prominent throughout play. Lenny’s fairy garden became a whole class collaboration as students offered findings to be included in his detailed world.
