Welcome to KWL!

We loved going to the forest today. What lovely colours we saw and we brought back many leaves and branches to make a creation in class.

Our math’s unit this week was focusing on counting objects with numbers and we played the game counters in a cup. How many red or yellow did you have? We were introduce to tallying.

What’s your strategy?

In writing, we talked about the beginning, middle and end of stories. How can we start our books? How can we finish a story? The children continue to add more detail to their writing and learnt “ You are not done, you have only just begun.”

Schedule October 5-9
