Well done Ethan and Raeiane.

T3W1

We love library time. Every Tuesday morning we go to the library and browse for a new book to take home. This week we used the library computer lab. We were learning how to use the program "Paint".




We now have 13 Super Seahorses!


Everyday after lunch we have "Buddy reading time"
Our Y4/5 buddies from Room 13 and Room 10 help us with our reading, sight words, spelling and letters.
We build our reading mileage by re-reading the book that we read with the teacher to our buddy. 

Our buddies work from a checklist that is specifically tailored to each child. The checklist might look something like this...

Buddy Checklist
Letters
Letter Sounds 
Sight Words
Spelling       /5
Book
When reading talk about what happened in the beginning, middle and end of the story.

See the pictures below of us working with our buddies.












For our first tennis session, we were pretty awesome. We learnt how to do the forehand shot. Next week we are going to learn about the backhand shot.
