We started the week off with ring time where we discussed the theme, colour, sound, shape, and number of the week, followed by the moral conscious theme. We then discussed weekend news and sang a few songs. 

Writing and Phonics: This week the Squad worked hard on remembering and reading their first sight word “look”. We are very impressed by how the Squad have remembered this word, please keep practicing sight words at home too. We also practiced letter formations “a”,” b”, and “c” in our workbooks, well tried Squad!

Mathematics: This week we traced the numbers “1-4” in our workbook followed by writing the numbers independently using the correct number formation.

Cooking: For our cooking class this week, the Squad formed their own “bodies” using cookie dough as well as adding in their choc chip eyes and mouth. Hmmmm…. these looked delicious when they came out of the oven, great work little bakers!

Creative Art: The Squad enjoyed making their own “nature bodies” for art. They took a nature walk and found natural resources such as sticks leaves, acorns, and rocks. They then formed their own bodies using these materials adding in as much detail as possible. The Squad thoroughly enjoyed this – their art came out uniquely beautiful!

The Squad have really impressed us so far, it is going to be an awesome year getting to know each other.

Thank you and have a great weekend. See you all on Monday.

IB Principle: Risk – Takers – This week the Squad learnt all about taking risks and what sets apart the risks from being smart or not. Sometimes in life we feel that we are making the wrong choices, but it is out of fear, and they turn out to be great opportunities. Life is about taking risking and putting ourselves out there.

Personal Space – We explained to the Squad that personal space is the area around your body and that we need to respect our friends’ bubbles. We must not pop other people’s bubbles because it could make them feel uncomfortable and we must politely let others know when you are not comfortable with how close they are.
