You can't do it...YET

You know how you sometimes say "I can't do that!"
I usually say "You mean you can't do it YET...but keep trying and you will!"
I found a very groovy Sesame Street song all about YET! Enjoy!

Farewell Tahlia! :(

It was Tahlia's last day with us today. (It was also Pyjama Day!) So we all got together and took a photo or two to add to her farewell poster! We wish you well, Tahlia. You are a fantastic learner and we know you will be a shining star in your new class!

Harry Practises His Word Power...

I found Harry tucked away in a quiet corner with an iPad. He had finished his "must-do trust-you" activities and could choose what ever he wanted to do. Harry chose to practise some more. I think this is why Harry is getting better and better at Word Power and writing - he keeps trying to fit more and more words into his brain! Great learning, Harry!

Reagan Reads "Jack's Birthday"

 Great reading, Reagan.
You can read a lot of fast words now.
We can hear you going back to re-read - what a good strategy to use.

Look at Siena's Writing!

Look at Siena's writing. Today she wanted to write a story using her fast words. Siena says she found the words in the red box and the yellow box on our alphabet card. Siena also talked with Carolyn and Tahlia about the first sounds in "dog" and "bath". So she wrote those, too. What a great story. You had lots of fun writing a silly sentence, as we all do on Thursdays.

Recording our reading...

Today we learned to use educreations to photograph our readers and record our reading.
We hope to post many examples of our reading.
