Week 6

We had a lot of fun and some great learning this morning during literacy group activities.

The children were very impressed with the light up, fluffy pens.  They copied their sight words using them.  It was much more exciting than a regular pencil!


Detectives were reading magnifying glasses to read I Spy books.  It was incredible how well they concentrated on the words with this new aid.

Lastly the children were given MAGIC GLASSES!  When you read with them the sight words just jump off the page at you.  "Wow, these are really working!"  exclaimed Sophie.


The class played a fun new maths game this afternoon which helps them recognise dot patterns for numbers 1-6 and matches them to numerals.  We have practised using a spider roll to keep the dice under control.




Getting 28 children ready for swimming may sound like a nightmare but not in 1B.  We have the routine down pat.  They organise all their belongings neatly on their desks before sitting on the carpet ready with their 'nest' of towel, cap and goggles ready to grab straight after a lunch break.  Many responsible children also remember their suncream.
