Great learning in Reading!

Some of the 'red readers' would like to share their learning from today with you:

"Today I was stretching my learning.  I am working it out to sound it out.  I was self-aware" - Cymorah

"I wrote about the crab and Little Fish.  The crab has legs and Little Fish saw them" - Blake.  Blake made a great connection between the crab and his legs.

Dominic has been practicing his letter formation and learning how to hold his pencil well.  Isn't he doing a great job!

We also celebrated with our learners who have been learning to correctly say certain sounds.  They've been so determined!!

Maths in hub 5 & 6

WE have been building our knowledge about number!

Tessa what numbers are you drawing? Are you being determined?

Miss P's group are looking at ordering numbers, you are having to do a lot of thinking!

Well done you are building your knowledge about how many 10s are in a number.

Keep going Boston, you can do it!

Tanuki you are learning very well, being independent in your learning

Baking day!!

Break Through Week 8, Cooking Group

What we love about Stonefields!

Today some more of the learners got to know ClickerDocs.  First we brainstormed words that we might use and then the learners collaborated to write stories about Stonefields.

We were inclusive and respectful when we worked together.  We helped each other with spelling and finger spacing and shared ideas.  Some of us were leaders and some of us were learners.

 

Can you see the words we wrote together in our word bank on the picture above?

"It was fun using it because we got to make sentences" - Rhys

"It was fun because we getted to write about beehive colours" - Georgia F.

"We used it like independent learners" - Dylan

"It was fantastic because we typed about Stonefields colours.  When we didn't know a word, we used the words that we loaded up on the screen" - Tanuki

"It was a bit tricky to spell school.  I saw it was on my t-shirt" - Maia

The concept of change

During concept learning we experimented with changing our voices and actions to suit the characters in the "three billy goats gruff."

Was it easy to change your voice to be in character?... at AnswerGarden.ch.

Buddy Reading with Hub 9!

Thank you Samo, it was really good to listen to you reading to us.

 .

Elliott, showing the children the pictures is a great idea!

Using an interactive book was a lovely idea!

Harold!

We have been so enthused by Harold and what he has taught us, that we shared what we learnt during discovery.  

Some of us even made Harold!

Bitsboard in Action in reading!

Here are some of our learners trying out Bitsboard today on the iPads.

This is an awesome app!  If you'd like to learn more and download follow these links.

Phonics and Handwriting Brain exercises!

 After phonics we get both sides of our brain to talk to each other. We pat our head and rub our tummies.

We march on the spot or around the hub.

 We learn how to touch the opposite knee with our opposite hand.

 

It is hard and we have to be determined. 

 Look at us we have got it... Can you practice at home?
