Our first week back!

Hello parents,

Our first week back has been great. The kids really enjoyed talking about their holiday and telling us about their adventures.












We then sang the 'Magic train song' and decided to write our very own 'adventure book'. It was a lot of fun and the kids came up with some interesting stories. 















For Literacy, we spent the week revising our sounds and practiced blending through various games. We also practiced writing on a straight line. 















 We did a fun game, where the kids had to listen to a word and jump to it! It aids with fast recognition and in turn helps to improve their reading skills.







For Numeracy, we learnt how to 'estimate'. The kids understood that this means we have to guess a quantity - and that we have think of a big number for big quantities and a small number of smaller quantities.



They loved competing against each other and were very pleased when their guesses were close to the estimate!

We also practiced number recognition and number order by finding missing numbers.










This week, our star is Namnoon because he was a fantastic helper of the day. He helped his friends to follow the class rules and made sure they all washed their hands with soap. Well done, Namnoon!
