In literacy we learned about the letters ‘u’ and ‘d’ and practised identifying the middle vowel sounds in words. We also enjoyed making a sentence to match a picture.

In numeracy we used concrete materials (ice penguins) to create our own number sentences. We practised adding and subtracting numbers to find the total amount. We also enjoyed matching the magnetic numbers.

This week we celebrated book week!  The theme was ‘Future’, we celebrated this by discussing what our future might look like and what we wanted to be when we grow up. We created a time capsule of our hopes and aspirations and buried this in a secret place in our playground area! We also listened to an author live read session by Julia Donaldson and enjoyed relaxing reading opportunities in our classroom.

This week was also anti-bullying week. We wore odd socks to school and created our own odd socks to celebrate that we are all different, unique and special. In writing we took the opportunity to create and write about ‘My Superhero’. We had some amazing superpowers!
