Spelling Outside

We were telling our partner the words of the week and we wrote them in chalk. We checked each others work – James

James and Rory made up a game called “Spelling Tig”

We played a memory game called ” The Farmers Hen has Laid an Egg”

 

       

 

Susan – I liked getting fresh air because it makes my learning better and fun.

Harris – I liked playing spelling tig because I like running games.

Luke – I liked writing the words down and my partner checking them.

Rory – I liked playing the spelling game that me and James made up.

Sophie –  I prefer going outside to learn and I liked writing with the chalk.

Max – I liked playing the talking memory game.

Making Thinking Visible

We “stepped inside” the characters from our class novel The Secret of the Kelpie” by Lari Don. Working in groups we talked about what the characters would think, how they would feel and what they would do next. We created a book with all our work.
We can tell you all about the legend of the Scottish Kelpie, just ask us!
