In literacy this week we learnt the sounds “k” and “ck”. We found out that these both make the same sound. We have been working hard at knowing what makes a good sentence and this week did some peer and self assessment of our sentences. It was great fun to be the teacher and mark someone else’s work! We also got to fly a kite, make a kite, look at how clocks work and make a rocket….busy boys and girls.
In numeracy we carried on our addition journey by looking at all the different ways to make 7 and 8. We also learnt about the 4 seasons of the year and worked out which season our birthday was in.
In IDL we continued our book focus on Handa’s surprise. We read the story again and then Mrs Gordon checked if we could remember the order by getting us to sequence pictures of the story in groups. We did really well with this as it was quite tricky. We then talked about the beginning middle and end of a story and why these were important. Mrs Gordon couldn’t believe how well we were able to draw the key parts of the story and bring it to life. We then made puppets ready for tomorrow when we are going to act out the story in groups. How exciting!
Mrs Gordon and P1a
