Literacy
During October for one of our grammar lessons we did something called Blether Stations. Basically Blether Stations is a number of sentences that the teacher put around the classroom and in each sentence you had to find the verb in it which is an action word. We also identified the nouns and adjectives in the sentences as well. When we had found all the verbs we had to write them in the past, present and future tenses.
We are going to try and focus on completing our reading strategies more independently and in more detail next month.
Numeracy and Technology
During our technologies time we went onto the laptops to play Sumdog and we did a time assessment. We had 50 questions to answer in 35 minutes. Our teacher put up the leader board so we could all see how many questions we had answered and who was in the lead.
We are going to focus on our addition and subtraction mental maths skills next month using our Number Talks strategies to help us.
Health and Wellbeing
On the 13th of October we went to BMX Biking on the tracks which was part of our school Health Week. It was very fun, we enjoyed going up and down the hills, around the tracks and jumping over small dips.
Seasonal
We have just had the best Halloween party in the school. We all got to dress up in our Halloween costumes and we got to go to different rooms to do dancing, gaming, watching a DVD and eating lots of Halloween treats. The teachers have all decorated their classrooms and the school with spooky decorations.
Thanks for catching up with us and we will see you again soon! Bye! X
