Primary 3 January Update
It was so lovely to see the children again after the Christmas Holidays! They were excited to share all of the stories of their time spent at home with family and friends.
In Literacy this term, we are continuing to develop our reading skills, remembering to change the tone of our voices so that we keep the listener interested. We have been learning to stop at full stops in our reading and read smoothly, trying to sound out unfamiliar words using our spelling skills such as :
- look for a phoneme
- syllabification (break word into parts eg, win/dow)
- blending the letter sounds together
In listening, we are focussing on turn taking in conversations as we sometimes get very excited to share our news and answers that we end up speaking over one another.
In writing, we continue to focus on using our Core Targets which is helping our writing make sense and be neatly presented. We are very proud of the progress we are making and can’t wait to show our hard work on Parent’s Night!
