Happy World Book Day everyone!
We had a great time in class during World Book Day making book marks and drawing our favourite characters. We even got to choose some new books for our class.
This is one of our new books.
We made bunting out of our drawings of our favourite books/characters.
In numeracy we have been learning about estimating numbers on a number line. Try out this online game using the link. Try estimating within 0 – 10 to start with and then increase this to 100 if you feel confident. Have fun.

In Literacy we have started using a new writing resource called PM writing. This is going to help us learn how to complete functional pieces of writing. This week we are focusing on a recount. We have already learned about the structure of a recount; title, orientation, sequence of events and personal comment. Next week we are going to be writing our own recount of what we do in the morning before we come to school.
For science we have explored our senses and had great fun completing a range of activities prepared for us by Mrs Lauder. The taste test was interesting as we had to first taste with our noses pinched and then taste again with out it pinched…what a difference it made! The feeling/touch test really made us think how much we rely on this sense because we firstly had to feel in the box wearing a rubber glove and then do it again without a glove! Fabulous learning through discovery.
Have a lovely week.
