Week 1

What a great start to the term that we have had. All the children have settled well into the routines. It has also been great to welcome Isabelle, Karnia, Kaiya and Dylan into our room. Those older children who have been going to Room 5 in the mornings have also adjusted quickly to new routines.

Some of the children exploring Shapes for our geometry maths focus.

Our big topic for this term is 'the art's'. As part of this next week (on Thursday) we will be lucky to see Stu Duval, an artist and story teller. He will also be holding a session on Thursday evening for families if they wish to attend. I know those who were able to attend his sessions when he visited the school a few years ago thoroughly enjoyed the evening.

Isabelle drew a picture of herself then she wrote 'I am Isabelle'.



Noah and Aria enjoyed exploring the shapes.

Rhys, Lucy and Mariesha practised writing the letter 'p' on the white boards.

Next week, Room 1's sound of the week will be 'v' and our word of the week will be 'the'. Maths number changeovers will begin again for the term. Some children will be swapping rooms so that they are in a room teaching them at a level that is appropriate to their understanding.

Have a great learning  week ahead.
