We have had some great home learning work returned on times you all have explored as a family. Many have enjoyed exploring at the beach finding crabs under rocks, and searching for shells!

We were very happy to have Shruti's mum help her give news about her exploration in Fiji. She was able to connect with family members she didn't know well.

we learned it takes 3 hours (half a school day) for the aeroplane to fly there in the air, but it would take many days and nights on a boat on the sea.

This is Shruti in the aeroplane

We could all show the next person in the circle New Zealand and Fiji on the world globe

Thankyou for visiting us!

Writing:

We are all moving forward with our writing. 

Great job Saaleha and Jayzarian for putting the fullstops at the end of your ideas. Keiteria! You are turning your letters into words now!

Well done Jedidiah! You are looking carefully at the details when drawing your crocodile picture, and finding the words you need! 

Great beaver writing Aayaanah and Kato! We can see the baby beaver in your picture Kato!

Fantastic finding the ideas and words you needed about frogs as Amphibians Zorron and Disha!

Shruti and Anisha, you have done some great free writing! We can see your fullstops at the end of the sentence ideas. Anisha, you have edited!

Maths:

We have been counting groups of 2, and can skip count how many beavers are on each dam. We have also been deciding how things should be sorted into groups, and then ways to display them. We love the rocket ship adding game!

Reading: we have been taking a word we know from the story, and learning more words from it!

Some special moments during term 1 have been:

Our zoo visit!
We went on the bus, and looked closely like scientists at the features of animals, and why they suit their habitat.
