Cookie children at home!

Have you been looking after your gingerbread child at home?

Here's Zahra with hers!

Writing about our 'children'

Most of us remembered to bring our gingerbread children back to school today... Ashikka and Zoe even spent time last night decorating their carry cases and Flynn gave his person a healthy dinner of broccoli!

Tonight we're all going home with them and will be thinking about what we can do to help keep them safe and healthy.  Try to get some pictures of you looking after your 'children' if you can, LH1!

Keeping our 'Children' Safe!

Today we started a new concept writing focus.

Some of our learners decorated biscuits to turn them into our children... we then made carry bags and containers for them to go home in.  Over the next few days we're going to be taking our children with us and doing our best to keep them safe.  I wonder what they might get up to!

Feel free to decorate them at home and take photos of what they do after and before school - be sure to keep them safe.

Is it ok to leave your child at home by themselves?

Is it ok to leave them out in the yucky weather?

Hub 1 learning about how to get ready in the morning

Some of our learners thought it might be useful, to make a movie for new learners to Stonefields School, about how to get ready in the morning before school.

Poetry time!

During poetry time we were set the challenge of collaborating to find the rhyming words in the poem, About Feet.  Can you hear them in our recording?

Some of us also really thought about our expression to make the recording more interesting for you!

Respectful Learners in LH1

Today during PE some of our learners were the most AMAZING role models.  They showed respect by making eye contact with the person speaking.  They listened carefully for their instructions.  They collaborated with the other members of their team.

How else can you show respect?

"Maybe next time at PE you can be respectful and be on the blog!" - Bella

"Maybe next time at PE the teachers could try and be respectful" - Kyan

Are the teachers respectful?  Yes

"How could the teachers be more respectful then?" - Mrs Freddy

"They could help people if they fall over" - Mina

"I hope we get to be on the blog!!" - Miss Holland

Children during their reading session

Aarav,  Zahra and Julia are learning to read silently as part of their reading session,  keep going!!!

Margot and Kyan are improving their ability to read silently. Awesome!!

Sachintha and Annabelle had fun blowing bubbles after reading their book!

Brooke read a story today about bubbles. They went up and up and up!!
Just like your bubbles Brooke.

Te Au Aio, awesome bubble blowing! Some of the others were trying to pop your bubbles.
 

Hailey was able to blow a long line of bubbles, they went up and up and up,  then down and down and down.

Dancing to the Beat

Look at the Break Through Group- we learning how to use the count of 8 to help us with our dancing.

Making Connections in Phonics

We've all been learning lots about letter sounds and how to use this understanding in our writing.  Some of the groups have been robotting to help them break down the sounds in words and some have been looking at words with the same middle and end sounds.  Here are some of the rhyming words we've found.  Can you think of any others?

Today we read 'Turtle's Trouble" again and we learnt how to re-tell the story, using a flow diagram.  You can listen to us...

We would like some feedback.  How do you think we did?

We love dress-ups!

Being a good friend

Today I saw saw Zahra and Nathan showing what it means to be inclusive as a friend.  Here they are to talk to you about what makes a good friend:

• They share toys
• They say nice things
• They play together
• They help each other
• They look after each other
• They include other people as well

Break Through with LH1 today

 

I played with my people today at Break Through time.  I was imagining things with them.  I think they were playing with each other and me.  By Caleb

I was building with the blocks.  It was hard and fun.  By Angela

This is me and I am playing with the circles.  I was moving them.  There are yellow, green, blue and red circles.  By Kyle

 

We were making a tower out of bricks, like the tower of terror from Rainbows End.  It was hard because some of us kept breaking it down!  We had to work together.  By Devynee and Zhara

I was playing with the girls because we always do numbers.  I like numbers.  I was cheeky, cheeky.  By Nicolas
