Term 3 - Weeks 1 & 2

 Miss Patrick is loving being back from maternity leave and teaching all the new Room 7 students. We have been extremely busy in the past 2 weeks with a range of learning tasks. 


We have been learning how to order our Numicon shapes correctly. We have also been learning the value of each of the shapes and talking about what shapes can make groups e.g. 5 + 5 = 10. 

Each week we have a story book that we are focusing on to increase our vocabulary.

We have started a 'Structured Literacy Book'. In this book we do daily structured drawing tasks, handwriting and word work. 

We are getting a lot better at knowing the stage one letter sounds. We use these letter sound tiles to make words and then change them to make new words. 

We are learning how to complete tasks independently while Cassie and Miss Patrick take our learning groups. We are getting better at being able to stay on one task for a small amount of time. 


This week we had our first hockey lesson. We are lucky to be able to have these for the next few weeks. 
This week is Cook Island Māori Language Week. We learnt about making Tivaevae. We made our own using our painting and cutting skills. 
We have started PMP with Room 6 on a Tuesday and Wednesday afternoon. This is to help us with our co-ordination skills. It has also been great for us to learn how to work with a range of people.
