Ella-Rose came to show me she had found two letter c puzzle pieces.  Well done Ella-Rose!  Who can find a letter c on something at home, perhaps a newspaper or tin of food?

This week...







Facts to 5

We are learning  how we can show facts to 5 using bags of counters and our fingers.


Porsha is making a fact to 5.


Rihanna is showing us 2 and 3 makes 5.


Jesse is showing us 3 + 2 = 5.


Ella-Rose is showing us 2 and 3 is 5.


Harry has made 3 + 2 is 5.


Carey is making 2 plus 3 to make 5.


Kieran is counting to check...


...2 and 3 is 5.


Emily knows 3 and 2 is 5.

There are lots of ways we can make a fact to 5 by using things in our homes such as buttons, bottle tops and stones.


Writing my name

Seth is learning to write the letters in his name...look how well he can write some of his letters!  Keep up this great work Seth!


Room 6, can you write all the letters in your name?  How about your surname?  Show me tomorrow!

Ordering numbers and letters

Here is Conrad ordering numbers to 5 and ordering letters in his name...




This is super, duper work Conrad!  Can you show your family how you can do this at home?


Balancing

Here are photos of us practising our balancing on one leg.  Room 6 - can you show everyone at home how long you can stand on one leg?
