Week 2 term 2 2016

Habitat 5 have been working very hard this week. 

We performed our first Powhiri for over 20 Australian principals and teachers that visited our school on Monday. They did such a fantastic job. :) 

Our I CARE value for the term is responsibility. We have been learning about all the ways we can demonstrate responsibility. This would be a good idea to work on for homelink :) 

We have been working on guided reading groups on different texts and filling out comprehension booklets to check our understanding of the texts.

We looked at words that we could use instead of said to make our writing more interesting. The children have created a display of this in the classroom. - Come and have a look :) 

See how many words your child can come up with instead of using said :) 

We have been learning about speech marks and when to use them.

We have started a warm fuzzie box - children write warm fuzzies to people and we read these at the end of each day. 

Habitat 5 have been lucky today as they have got to work with a different teacher learning about the Lorax. They have created amazing pieces of art that we will put up in the classroom.
