Week 3

Reminder - Please remember to bring library bags for Monday, as Monday is still our library day.

It's hard to believe that we are already at the end of Week 3! Rainbow Week has been a busy and enjoyable week exploring the phonic sound Rr. It has been full of colour and fun!




During our literacy sessions we have been dancing like robots, making robots with different coloured shapes, making rockets to launch for science, using letter road mats to practise tracing our letters with toy cars and playing in our restaurant.





During numeracy, we have been learning AB patterns (for example, blue, orange, blue, orange or head, shoulders, head, shoulders) and creating these with beads to make pattern necklaces. Our focus number has been the number 8 and the children had fun counting 8 legs to make a spider.
Our afternoons have been full of science. We launched our rockets off our verandah and made a rainbow with m&m's and water. 







We look forward to another busy week in Kindergarten next week. During Week 4, we will be introducing the phonic Cc as in cat and caterpillar and introducing the number 9. To reinforce the phonic sound we will be reading The Hungry Caterpillar and exploring the beginning, middle and end of the story during our shared reading sessions.

Over the next coming weeks, notes will go home for news telling which will begin in Week 5. Study ladder logins will also be sent home in Week 5, which will assist children with concepts we have taught at school. As always, if there are any queries please contact me.
