Term 3: Week 3 Learning

This week on Monday, we head out on a bus for our school trip to explore the movement that has happened around this area. We will be looking into the different developments that are going on, the movement of people, housing and how it is changing. We will be looking at the Pioneer Village and Cauldery House while we are out on our road trip. Thanks to the Parents that are coming along to help.

This week in reading we will be focusing on 'Lips the Fish'. This is where, if the children get stuck they will be looking at the beginning sounds of the unknown word and reading on to the end of the sentence to help them. Along with this, we are also focusing on understanding what they are reading. When reading with your child talk to them about what is happening in the story and ask them some questions about what they have just read. This can be done with the reader they bring home, book before bed etc.  Make sure you make it fun.

In Writing, we will be reading the book 'The Day the Crayons Quit'. From this book, we will be writing our own Narrative of what the Colour Crayon of their choice got up to when it had quit. We will be talking about Characters they could use in their story, Settings where it could take place, and what problems and solutions that they could choose.



In Maths we are continuing exploring into Factions, finding a half and quarter of an object.  Along with this, we are working on skip counting in 2's, 5's and 10's. Also on Friday, we will be touching base back on time. We will be working on reading a clock that shows O'Clock.
