Workshops
In reading and writing workshops we are focusing on our reading strategies and retell skills. Daily we are completing writing tasks to build our writing stamina.  We are following a writing process this term to create a Recount. Each class has different shared text for the week. Ask your child to retell the story of the week?  Our grammar focus was full stops. In Maths we are continuing daily number sense, number patterns and we explored addition.

Religion
We are learning about the Creation Story.  This week we explored how God created the world.
