IB Principle: Communicators – As part of the IB Principle of being effective Communicators, we discussed with the Squad the value of expressing their feelings and thoughts using words. We emphasized the importance of active listening, using the right tone of voice, and thinking before speaking to ensure their words are kind and respectful to others. 

Writing and Phonics: This week the Squad focused on the “an” family and wrote sentences in their workbooks using the cat method. We are so pleased with how well they are progressing with their handwriting, focusing on finger spacing and placing the letters in the correct part of the “cat”. They also decoded words using sound buttons in their TimetoRead books. Great work Squad! 

Mathematics: This week we focused on arranging numbers from “least to greatest”. They used their number lines and wrote their answers in the correct blocks. We are proud of their understanding on this concept. We also practiced counting to 30 and backwards, as well as in 2’s, 5’s and 10’s. Keep it up Squad! 

Creative Art: For art this week the Squad enjoyed making their art for Father’s Day, they couldn’t wait to take it home for dad to see their awesome creations!  

Music: We are in full swing of practicing for our annual concert – the children are singing their hearts out. Keep it up.  

Wishing you all a lovely weekend. 

Our Squad!
