Writing Term 1

I am learning to use a simple plan for my writing.

I can draw a picture about my story to help me when I am writing.

"I liked writing today.  I can write about myself.  Sometimes it's tricky to draw the pictures.  Sometimes it's easy."  Karsin

Reading Term 1

I am learning to make the first sound in new words.

  I can look at the first letter and make the sound.  I can look at the picture to help me too.

" Sometimes I listen to my friends read to help me if I get stuck.  Mrs Koroa can help me too when I get stuck.  I will practise my letters at home too." Karsin

Maths Term 1

I am learning to read and write all the numbers from 0 to 10.

" It is tricky writing my numbers because sometimes I write them the wrong way.  My friends can help me or Mrs Koroa.  I can write my numbers now but I need to think carefully about writing the numbers 6 and 7 so they are the right way. I liked writing on the whiteboard. " Karsin

Term 1 Water Safety

We have been learning to be safe in the water.

"My favourite part is monkey-walking around the outside of the pool.  I really, really like it.  We have to try and catch the girls.  Sometimes we do too!"  Karsin

Butterfly Art

We used Kid Pix to create our backgrounds.  

We used black marker pen and dye to colour in our butterflies.

"It was tricky colouring in my butterfly.  It took a long time.  I like my butterfly." Karsin
