To start our day we had an ERIC session and it was lovely to see everyone relaxing with a good book.
Then we went into groups to work on our word building and reading skills. One group decided to revise their capital letters by making them out of Kapla!
We like finding new and interesting ways to learn!
During our reading lesson today we became word detectives! We had the first letter of the word that we were looking for and using our scanning skills (and mini magnifying glasses!) we hunted down the missing words.
During our Literacy and English lessons we explore language in a number of different ways. Today there were groups exploring different sounds in words, creating  character profiles, using ICT to sort real and nonsense words and some children relaxing with their favourite book.
We continue to enjoy our fortnightly visits to the library where we get to choose our own books, read with friends and relax while listening to new stories.
On alternate weeks half of our class visit the library and today was the first day that the children could choose a book to take home with them.
We had lots of fun exploring all the different books in our library and selecting our favourite to take home and share with family.
The other half of the class will be choosing their books next week. Books should be kept for two weeks and brought back in on a Friday. Happy reading!
We have been thinking about Pirates and all our books in our reading area have a Pirate theme!
During our visit to the library today we started our ERIC (everyone reading in class) sessions. This gives all of us the opportunity to enjoy and share books.
In our classroom we love reading and listening to stories. To support us in becoming the Authors and Illustrators of the future we have space in our room to enjoy the work of established Authors and Illustrators. This week we are celebrating the work of Julia Donaldson:
