Achieving my Writing Goal

Jeremiah has been working really hard on his writing goal.  He can now accurately identify the first sounds in the words that he writes.

Jeremiah can now work on his new writing goal of now trying to write all the sounds in a word.

You are a great author, Jeremiah.

Pizza Sharing

In Maths, we have been learning what the word 'equal' means and how to share equally. Our teacher gave us a pizza that had been cut into halves or quarters. We had to pretend to be a pizza chef and make pizza toppings with play dough. We then had to share the toppings equally on to each piece of the pizza.  

 

Measuring Our Tower

"Mrs Smith you can't believe it! It's one hundred." (Jeremiah)

"It's 29 meters!" ( Mitchell L)

Building the tower took the boys a good, loud half an hour. After lots of play and fun the boys decided the tower was filled with baddies.

Labelling Parts of a Bike

Writing a Letter Home

Tomorrow we are going to ride our bikes at school.  We are learning and reading about lots of different bikes and what they can do.   We wrote a note home asking if we could bring our bikes to school.  Fingers crossed I am allowed too.  Whoops I forgot to write I need to bring my bike helmet too!

Our Car Ramp

Today we were making a car ramp outside. We learned lots about our play. We used puddles to clean our cars to reuse on the ramp. We had a problem where the cars were flying out the end of the ramp. We decided to use sand to stop the cars. Then we had another problem because the sand at the end created a type of sand ramp and the cars started flying over the ramp. We solved the problem by making the sand into a wall to stop the cars.

 We had another idea to create a high ramp at the beginning of the track so we didn't have to push the cars so hard. We used blocks of wood to make one end of the ramp higher.

Author's Chair

Jeremiah has been working really hard during Write to Self time finding words on his word card and writing them into his book. He was able to read to the class all the words that he wrote. You are a great author, Jeremiah.
