Star writers

Another fantastic day for writing!

Here are just some of our great writers.

Cross Country

Today we had our school cross country.

We all went out to the field.

Then it was time for the girls race...

And then the boys...

Everybody tried their best and ran the whole course.  Well done Room 11 we are so proud of you, but especially Monaro who was 3rd!

Clever Maths Thinkers!

  

The group with Mrs Nathan we're learning to put the biggest number in their head and then count on to solve our number problems!

Maths today

Today in maths we worked in groups to complete our pattern activities.  Our focus was on team work and problem solving.

Some groups had great success and others found the job difficult.

Star Writers

Today we had two star writers!

Dara was able to write his story all by himself by finding the words he needed or sounding them out.

Righteous worked with Mrs Nathan but he didn't really need her.  Mrs Nathan just helped him to keep his story in his head and he knew exactly where to find the words he needed.

Keep up the great work you stars!

Reading with the Red Group

'Today the red group read Late for the Race.  They were learning to use the pictures for clues to help them find more information about the story.

Isaac L moved up to the red group and he did a great job of helping us.

Star Writer

Today Dara started writing in his new book.  He wrote his whole story by himself.  He knew where to find the words he needed on his alphabet card and on the wall.

Great job Dara!

Reading with Blue Group

Today Blue group were reading Grandma's vase.  They were using the pictures for clues to help them learn more about the story.  They also needed to use their fingers to point to the words and use Lips the Fish to help with the new words they met.

Computer time

Today it was our turn with the netbooks.
We choose our working buddy and learnt how to move the mouse using the mouse pad.

This is a great website to let us practice.
