Week (Towns and Cities)

Next
Week (Occupations and transport)
|
|
|
Literacy
|
This
week, we introduced the new Unit of phonics. We began with the double
ending‘ll’. The kids understood that this means we hold the sound ‘l’ for a
bit longer. They are improving their blending skills as well and can now read
simple sentences with familiar words.
|
Next
week, we will be covering the sound ‘ss. Again we will talk about words that
end in ‘ss’ such as boss, hiss, kiss, less, mess. We will continue to blend
and read sentences as well.
|
|
|
Math
|
This
week, we learnt learn ‘tens and ones’. For example, 10 and 2 makes 12.
|
Next
week, we will learn how to add 2 and 3 to numbers below 20.
|
|
|
Science
|
We
talked about occupations and what kinds of instruments people in different
jobs use. We then made our very own instrument bags.
|
Next
week, we will learn about water transport and how they stay afloat. We will
make our own boats and try to get them to float on water.
|
|
|
Art
|
We
talked about land transport and how a car functions. Then we took turns
making our own cars.
|
We
will make various crafts involving water transport.
|
|
|
PSED/
Physical
|
We had some parents come in to talk to us
about their occupations – this was very exciting! And a lot of them linked to
our current theme of transport, as well.
|
We will do some transport yoga (cosmic yoga)
and a fire fighter obstacle course!
|
|
|
Home Learning
|
We will send home some templates of shoes with laces
attached to them. Please practice tying shoe laces with your child. Feel free
to take pictures and send them to me and I will put them up on my next blog.
