Māori

We are learning to count in Māori and ask and answer a sentence about how many objects/people there are. 

Shalom was able to write the sentence to answer how many animals there were in each picture. 

Social Science

We wrote about who is in our family, what we like to do with our family, what our family likes to eat, a family celebration and family jobs and chores. We created a poster with our writing and then we drew a picture of our family.We learnt about ourselves and we are really proud of the quality poster we created.

Discovery Time - Term 3

You enjoy dressing up and imaginative play at Discovery time.

Reading - Term 3

Shalom is working hard at checking that what she reads looks right, sounds right and makes sense.

Shaloms's next learning step is to be able to retell the story that he has read with a beginning, middle and end.

Maths Strategy - Term 3

Shalom is able to use known hand patterns and known facts to solve addition and subtraction problems that have 10 as one of the numbers.

Shalom's next learning step is to solve addition problems by holding the biggest number in her head and counting on in increments of one.

Writing - Term 3

Shalom is learning to use joining words in her sentences so that she adds more information for the reader.

 Shalom, I enjoyed hearing you read the story that you wrote about celebrating Christmas with your family.

Maths - Time

We have been learning to:

• sequence events within a day

• order the days of the week
• order the months in a year
• describe a duration as long or short ­
• ­name and ­directly compare the duration of two events
• ­­tell the time to the hour and half hour using analogue clocks

Before we talked about clock features, we all drew clocks using our prior knowledge.

Shalom, your next learning step is to correctly position the numbers 1 to 12 on a clock face.
