We have had a busy week this week with plenty going on! Student led conferences were a huge success, we have a new direction with our metaproject and there is some information below about your child's reading program.
Student Led Conferences
From the children who wanted to share their thoughts on this day...
"I liked the colours of the Playdough on the conference day" Armaan
"I got to show my Mummy in the Home Corner" Myra
"My best thing was playing with the iPads and doing art work with my Mum and Dad" Sam
"I liked it because my Mum was here and we were playing in the home corner. We ate together and played with babies" Tallis
"I liked the art work where we made a rocket ship" Xander
"I liked when my Mum came" Aasha
"My Mum and Dad and I were sitting in the writing centre" Diya
"I liked when me and my Mum and my Dad went to the canteen and had some food." Zara
"I liked when I made my rocket ship". Rupert
Below is a video showing the progress and final result of our Art Installation!
Metaproject
After a fantastic brainstorming session where we discussed possibilities for our future metaproject direction we have decided to start learning about animals from around the world. This seems to be an area of interest for all the children and they are already absorbing new facts and information about animals from all over the world.
If you had talked to me about sharing parts of your culture with the class don't worry, we will still be looking at these kind of things and can't wait to have you in to share with us. Please keep an eye out for an email about parent help which I will get to you in the next few days.
Reading program
You may have noticed that your child brought home a book with words from our class library this week. This will happen every Wednesday and be sent home with the wordless book. Please feel free to keep these until the following Tuesday.
Over the next few weeks your child will start to bring home levelled readers or alphabet books. I will be in touch with more information about this closer to the time.
Have a fantastic weekend!
Lovely to see photos of the Student Led Conferences. The art installation looks amazing.
