IB Principle: Risk Takers – We explained to the Squad that being a risk taker is like being a brave adventurer! It means trying new things, even if they might not work out. When you take risks, you learn and grow, and sometimes you discover amazing things about yourself and the world around you. Imagine if you never tried riding a bike or swimming because you were afraid of falling or getting wet? You would miss out on so much fun! Taking risks helps you build confidence, make new friends, and find new passions. It’s okay to make mistakes – that’s how we learn! So, don’t be afraid to take a chance, try something new, and see where it takes you. You might just discover something amazing!
Writing and Phonics: This week, the Squad completed their last handwriting and worksheets for the year. They focused on the ‘ub’ and ‘ut’ word families. The Squad demonstrated their understanding by matching the words to corresponding pictures, making use of their ‘sounds buttons’ and then writing sentences in their workbooks applying the “cat” method. It’s impressive to see how their handwriting skills have improved, with noticeable advancements in letter formation and finger spacing. They’re also showing a great understanding of word structure such as placing them in the correct part of the “cats”. Keep up the excellent work, squad!
Mathematics: This week we practiced counting in multiples of 2, 5, and 10, as well as counting backwards from 30-0. Squad also completed a worksheet where they had completed a data handling worksheet by counting the amount of shapes and colouring in the correct amount of blocks.
Creative Art: The Squad put their creative minds to work this week and have been working hard on some lovely Christmas art to take home.
Have a wonderful weekend!
