Literacy
This week we have been practicing our spelling every day during ELF and Smart Start.
Harrison- “We have been spelling our words in different colours”.
We have been reading our book to ourselves and in our groups. We also were using the book to help us answer the questions.
Lucy- “We were skim reading to find fact in the book”.
We continued writing a persuasive piece of writing this week.
Levente- “I was persuading the reader that snow was fun because my brother and I love to play in the snow”.
Maths
This week we have been rounding numbers to the nearest 10.
Tyler N. “We use the chant 0 to 4 slide to the floor. 5 to 9 clime the vine. This helped us work out if we round up or down. For 54, we look at the ones and because it’s 4 we round down to 50. For 99, we look at the ones and because there is 9, we round up to 100”.
IDL
This week we continued to learn about the Up Helly Aa Festival. We had to collaborate as group and create a small drama to describe the key features of the Up Helly Aa.
