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.  

Writing and Phonics: This week the Squad wrote their sight words using the car method. We are so pleased with how well they are progressing with their handwriting – we see an improvement since the holidays. We also went over our beginning sounds of words and introduced our Time2Read programme where the children will be decoding words using sound buttons. 

Mathematics: This week we focused on the concept : time. The children looked at an analog clock and learnt all about counting in 5s and that the long hand is the minutes and the short hand is the hours. They also had a worksheet to complete.  

Creative Art: For art this week the children had a group project where they had to complete the body of different wild animals. We will be keeping these for Art Expo.  

FunFit Sports: Coach Trevor had the Squad hop and carrying a ball and place it on a cone.  They loved this game so much!  

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. 

Stay Wild And Free Our Squad!
